whenever I insert a disc, I get a new icon on my desktop to make it
Hi, I have a problem. When I put a new disc in my DVD player I have a drive icon on my desktop. Each new disc that I have Gets a new icon, so I have half a dozen at the same time, often. I don't remember any change, who said that he would do this, please help!
I finally found the answer.
TweakNow PowerPack is a feature that has placed a new icon on the desktop for each disc insert (supposedly for faster access to disk) called CDAutorun.exe. Disabling this program in the list of the problem resolved startup programs.

The start screen is up to you to customize however desired. You can right click on any icon to unpin it from the splash screen, but does not remove the program. Right click on a box empty and select "All Apps" to see the complete list. From there you can right click the app and 'Pin to Start' people again to put it back on the splash screen or move.

How can I get the Firefox icon on my desktop, it obtained some how removed?
For some reason, Firefox icon that was on my desktop has gone, I still can not online using the symbol on the bottom of my screen, but would like to get the icon back on most of my Desk top! How can I do?
Sincerely
Walter C. Scott
The shortcut get pinned to the taskbar? If you right-click on the taskbar, the icon of Firefox, has the option to "unpin this program from the taskbar? You can do to return the shortcut on the desktop, or you could make a shortcut in doubles for the office.
To make a duplicate shortcut, use the search box of Windows 10 to find firefox.exe - do not press ENTER, which can run the program, just let Windows show he finds the program file. Click right firefox.exe and use to send to > desktop (create shortcut)
Still works in Windows 10?
Otherwise, you can paste the following text in the search box and press ENTER to open the folder of the program Firefox then right click firefox.exe here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox

Hello

If you have problems with CD/DVD drive:
Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.Your CD or DVD drive is missing or is not recognized by Windows or other programs

Hello
Whenever I have to play the game, I have to insert the disc 2 in my DVD ROM despite installing the game on my hard drive.Can someone help me with a cure for this (IE run the game without the CD?) I can run Microsoft Flight simulator without inserting the DVD in my DVD-rom.original title: query on Microsoft Train Simulator 2001
I suspect that the game has Digital Rights Management in there (i.e., copy protection) and it checks for you ensure that you physically have the disc so that he knows that you are not a thief. Many providers of game assumes that you are a thief and you prove that you're not demanding that the disc is in the DVD player when the game takes place. What I do is to use a program like Alcohol 52%, a free program that can make a copy of a DVD/CD and include in the image copy protection so that you can use a DVD player virtual to mount the image file instead of having the real DVD mounted in a real drive.
