I've made a program that relies on IniReadSectionNames. It reads (~3K) Autorun.inf files in the working folder and creates a GUI based on their contents. I made sure to revert to a default GUI upon @error. But someone (with Windows XP SP3 32-bit) reported to me he always gets the default menu. I sent him a FileRead command instead and it works! So seemingly there's no access problem to AutoRun.inf. In the following demo code, I always hit success, but he always ends up with semi-success: Local $hIniLocation = "Autorun.inf" Local $aSections = IniReadSectionNames($hIniLocation) If @error Then $aSections = FileRead($hIniLocation) if @error then msgbox(48, "Double error", "Alternative access failed too due to:" & @crlf & @error & @crlf & @extended) else msgbox(0, "Semi-success", "IniReadSectionNames failed, but alternativaly this file contains:" & @crlf & @crlf & $aSections) endif else msgbox(0, "Success", "IniReadSectionNames worked!") endif Why is that? Is there something further to check with him? Autorun.inf

I'm running Windows 7. I have an autorun.inf file on a removable drive that looks like this: [autorun] label=My Drive Label When I plug in that USB drive and open Windows Explorer, I see that drive properly labeled. It says "My Drive Label (G:)" next to the drive icon. However, I can't figure out how to read that label (without reading the ini file, of course). If I use DriveGetLabel("G:"), it returns the string that is stored when you right-click the drive and select properties and type in a label. I can't figure out how to make it return the label that is displayed in Windows Explorer. Any ideas?
