Disable CD-ROM AutoPlay

Windows has a feature called AutoPlay, this will immediately start the program when inserted into the CD-ROM. If you don't like AutoPlay, you can disable it by holding down the Shift key while inserting a CD-ROM. 

Or, there is a more permanent solution. 

1. Open any folder and select View> Options> File Types. 

2. Double-click Audio CD. 

3. Select Play, and choose "Set Default" which actually toggles the default. 

If Play is bold, the CD will play when inserted. If it is not bold, it will keep quiet until you order it to play.
