I created the autorun.inf file on my PC, then tried to copy it to the Kindle root and got the access denied message as I attempted to copy the file to the Kindle.
I now tried creating a .txt file in the Kindle root and then re-named that file to autorun.inf - which it let me do (but did complain about) - unfortunately now when I try to delete that file (which is empty) I get the access denied message again! the file is not read-only, and I tried doing it from Win XP file explorer, as well as from the command line (del) - and got the same result both times - access denied. Is this a Windows thing that is not letting me delete this file?
Your point about Windows disabling autorun's is now bringing back the vague memory of that fact - duh! But the backup batch file works nicely, I've got the backup going to my Dropbox folder on my PC - seems to be working well.
I do also have a computer running Ubuntu - maybe trying to del the autorun.inf from there will work? any advice would be appreciated!
