Autorun Manager

Autorun Manager is a small-sized program that does not require installation. Made to prevent PCs from getting infected with the autorun virus, it provides one-click actions for deactivating various drives and devices, in order to cut off all access to such threats.

No installation necessary

Since the app is portable, you can save it to any part of the hard disk and simply launch its executable file. Another possibility is to copy Autorun Manager to a removable storage unit (like a USB flash disk) and directly run it on any PC to eliminate the risk of getting infected with the autorun virus.
An important aspect worth taking into account is that the application does not modify Windows registry settings or add extra files on the HDD, leaving it clean after removal.

All options listed in a clear-cut GUI

The interface is represented by a regular window with a plain and simple structure, where you can check out all options available. So, it is possible to disable autorun on CD- and DVD-ROMs, removable and network drives, unknown devices, and so on. It is possible to disable everything from the list as well as to activate them again. Changes may be applied for the current or all users.

Evaluation and conclusion

There were no kind of issues in our tests, since Autorun Manager did not hang, crash or pop up error messages. It has a good response time, applies changes rapidly and runs on low CPU and RAM, so it does not hog system resources. All in all, Autorun Manager provides a very simple and efficient method to cut off access to drives and devices prone to autorun virus attacks, and it can be handled by anyone, even users with little or no experience in such apps.
