Is it possible to disable the "scan and fix" message when inserting an SD Card?
Every time I insert the SD card from my camera into the card reader, I get this dialog:
Of course there is no need to scan it. Is there a way to disable it?
This article claims a solution:
Resolve Vista Scan and Fix Error When Plugging in IPOD or other Devices.
Basically, what it advises is not to click the “Scan and Fix” button, but rather to click "Continue without scanning", then enter in cmd (probably invoked with Run as Administrator) the command:
chkdsk (device drive letter): /f
In the comment section of this article, quite a few people said that this did fix their problem.
I found this solution to Disable Scan and Fix Removable Drive Notification on the net.
- Go to Start
- type msconfig
- select Services Tab
- Scroll down and Uncheck Shell Hardware Detection
- Restart Windows
- Done.
Note: This disables the Shell Hardware Detection services, which Provides notifications for AutoPlay hardware events. Also the Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) service depends on it to Provide image acquisition services for scanners and cameras.
Clicking the Safely remove hardware once appears to fix it for each insertion.
