LR 2.4 automatically  senses a CF card and starts up...I dont want this..

I UN-checked the box

"  preferences; import; 'show dialog when a memory card is detected'   " 

but it rechecks itself when it LR closed...  and reopened...

i.e   I shut down LR...and reopen the dialog and sure enough it is rechecked..

I dont want LR to auto  try and respond to a CF card inserted

I also have adobe elements 4 installed  and tried to find any related stuff that MIGHT be 'rechecking' the box ...as an ADOBE system parameter...or something

this SEEMED to start occuring when I installed the latest LR 2.4....no issues before this

during last 2 yrs etc

using Win7 RC ... BUT this was NOT happening for past months... with previous LR and Win7...

and Win7 beta also...no issues..........JUST the new LR 2.4 install

HELP

    As the OP stated, unchecking the box does not stick. The next time LR is opened the box is re-checked.

    FYI, adproxy.exe/Adobe Photo Downloader 3.0 is not checked in my msconfig/Startup either.

         Preferences, Import, Check box is the right place. Since it's not sticking, delete Prefs and reset would be my recommendation.

    How to locate Preferences files in LR

    tommylee-

    You must have a LR Prefs file somewhere!

    IAE, enough others are reporting it didn't do the trick, and other than just keep LR running in the bg, or disabling software about which I know little, (d/l and O/S stuff)  I dunno what to say here.
