Remove the AutoPlay list devices
When I moved to Vista I tried to install all my printers, scanners, etc. I then found that HP has not released drivers for my scanner 5300C so I have to installed software. However, it remains on my list of devices autoplay ina he's its forms - scanner, fax, etc. So, when I plug my camera etc and I wonder what device autoplay I want them displayed. I can find no way to remove them. Do you know how?
The foregoing involves registry changes!

I had an iphone and he sold on ebay, now in my autoplay menu, there is my iphone device listed in DEVICES. I would like to remove it, but there is no option to do this. I looked everywhere in the 'managers' and 'eventhandlers' regedit, but I can't find the name of my iphone or whatever it is about the iphone in particular.

Obsolete devices in the AutoPlay list & several entries for the same devices
I would like to remove 4 entries for "Canon PowerShot A75" on the list of automatic run settings since I no longer have this camera. Can someone tell me how to remove these? (I have Vista Home Premium SP2)
Someone else has multiple entries in the auto playlist for the same device? Someone managed to remove them?
Vestalite,
Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.Always back up the registry before making changes. See this article on how to back up and restore the registry:
How to back up and restore the registry in Windows
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/322756It is possible to manually edit the system registry to remove the AutoPlay handlers. The AutoPlay handlers are stored in the following registry location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\Handlers\Above registry key stores the Settings Manager, which is the action to perform when selected on AutoPlay.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\EventHandlers\Above registry key stores the names of different events, which contains associated managers. Which mean all entries added as value to the event will appear as an option when the particular event occurs and the trigger AutoPlay menu dialog box.
Let us know if this solves your problem.

How to remove the units listed in the window of the autorun program
Does anyone know how to remove the automatic launch of units? Earlier, I installed several of my old mobile phones, which I don't use anymore, but when I open the autorun program, they are listed (some several times) and I can't seem to uninstall. Would be very happy if someone knows how to solve my problem. :)
Original title: Wireless units in autorun
Hi Bijei,
- It is a program to AutoPlay or AutoRun?
I suggest you open the editor from the registry on your computer and check in below location if the old mobile entries are listed. To open the registry editor follow the steps below:
a. Click Start.
b in the start search box type regedit and press to enter.
(c) in the registry editor, navigate to the following location.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\KnownDevices
or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers
d. Locate the old entries from mobile device to the above address.
If you are able to find the entrances to the location above, you can click with the right button on the mobile device entries and remove entries. After you delete the key, restart the computer and verify if they appear in the list of AutoRun again. Before you remove the key make sure that you back up the registry keys.
Registry warning:
Sometimes, this problem is due to two Windows that have been corrupted registry entries. To resolve this problem, you must use the registry editor to delete the corrupted registry entries.
However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, proceed as in the KB Article:

Let's say I have a numerical list like this.
MYLIST = "1,5,11,17,19."
Now I need to remove just 11 of the mylist. (delete_value = 11)
How can I remove the mylist delete_value
Its like the opposite of ListAppend?
So I need the new list to be ("1,5,17,19")
That UDF should do the trick.
