You can download a fix from MS that repairs the autoplay functions. It's not as simple as just re-enabling the autoplay option from the drive property tab. I had this problem twice and it repaired it both times.

You may need to run it more than once. The first occasion I had to run it twice, and the second time I ran it 4 times! It needs a reboot after each run and it runs in "steps", hence the reboot after each step where something is found wrong.

Once repaired, all should refresh correctly. You can then either turn off autoplay in the drive tab (or using TweakUI) or have AnyDVD handle that.

You can get it here from MS:

Other than that, I don't know as up until using it, nothing else worked for me. I did have to run it multiple times, the 2 times I used it, for it to correct all the problems.
