try this registry:
copy the following code in notepad and save as "xyz.reg" and merge it......


REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"Hidden"=dword:00000001
hope u'll b able to see the hidden files now...

Try this:

Click "run" on your start menu and type regedit.

In "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT" branch (first one from the top) find "drive" sub-branch. Easiest way to find it is to expand the branch, click on the first sub-branch ant simply type in "drive".
Now expand it and click on the "shell". If there is anything in the data for the (Default) value, delete it. That data is the reference to the shell sub-branch for default action when double-clicking the drive icon. If you like, you can export the "drive" branch to a file just in case you delete something vital. (no undo function)

Can you not do a virus scan? Most up-to-date virus protection software such as avast should be able to detect and repair the corrupted windows program..

ufff....

try this,
run gpedit.msc

goto user config>admin temp>system>turn off auto play>
check enabled,
turn of autoplay on all drives...

this is the last effort from my side...
if this doesn't work, then there's some other problem, that i don't know

gud luck!!!

oh now i know why the delete command didn't work:
i copied the autiorun on my drive n tried to delete it simply but it didn't do coz
autorun is a system file ./....
n aslo u hav to delete is forcefully...
(u cannot see this file until u uncheck "hide system file" in the tools>options)

d:\del autorun.inf /a /f
or

d:\del autorun.inf /as /f
