I suggest to set the values for "Removable drives" and "Memory card" to:Īsk me every time or: Import photos and videos (Dropbox)Īfter this you should be able to reconnect your memory card or USB pen and you can start importing your pictures.Īs I had these specific pictures already in dropbox with the wrong file-names, i removed them from dropbbox and.On the left select AutoPlay and take care that AutoPlay is generally activated.Press Windows-key + i and select: Devices.Set the value of this key to the hex-value (!!!) 91.Take close attention for the correct writing!
If it is not existing, then create this key as a DWord (32bit).
Here is the way how to activate Auto-Play for ALL devices: I know you can find 100's of threads about how to disable Auto-Play, but in this specific case Auto-Play helps to activate Dropbox for importing pictures (it would be great if Dropbox could simply add a button: Search for new Pics ) Windows 10 these days does not automatically run Auto-Play function anymore IF a regular SD card / USB is used (!!!) but only when a camera or MP3 player is connected.
Windows used to have an Auto-Play function which askes you, what you like to do, when connecting a removalble memory or device. So I deleted all these new 1120 pictures and copied them onto a USB stick and fixed the Windows 10 issue with Auto-Play.įor those of you having the same issue - here you go: (I was searching if there is a way to re-name them automatically by using Dropbox but I only found external software. Thanks to lovely Windows, the Auto-Run option for removable media was not proberly working (in the beginning) so that I accidentally copied pictures from my camera's SD card into Dropbox and discovered that the Auto-Renaming of Dropbox only works, when Dropbox upload pictures by it's own routine. I have a new windows machine and installed the latest Dropbox on the new PC.
