That could do the trick. Maybe some kind of refresh or reload of the USB drive. Problem is, I have no idea how to write something like this.

I have USB flash drive with autorun.inf file in the root folder. The autorun.inf contains some custom contex menu items. Problem is, when I restart my PC with my USB flash connected, my menus are gone. I need to remove it and insert it again before any of the custom context menus are present. Why is that? How can I solve it? My OS is Windows XP Pro SP2.<br />

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
