Use TweakUI to add iTunes as an Autoplay option for a USB memory key
Q How can I add iTunes as one of the Autoplay menu options
for my USB key in Windows XP? I have tried changing the options in the
Properties window but there is no entry for iTunes.

A Autoplay from a USB memory key is not very reliable in Windows XP but it is possible to set the function for when it does work. You will need to install TweakUI.
Start TweakUI and double-click on My Computer and Autoplay. Click on Handlers and scroll down the list to the Show songs option. Click on it once and then on Edit. Select the Music files option and then click on OK in both windows.
Click on the Start menu and then My Computer. Right-click on the USB key icon
and left-click on Properties. Click on the Autoplay tab. Select the option
‘Select an action to perform’, click on Show songs using iTunes and then click
on OK in both windows.
