One of the options for removable media is for it to ask what to do when removable media is inserted, perhaps you have that option set? It might also help people to help you if you said which desktop environment you are using. Other people who've replied seem to be talking about XFCE but I don't see that you said that is what you are using. -- Tixy

Annoying pop-up window
Whenever I plug in a USB drive, camera or Kindle I get a pop-up window advising me that "Removable medium is inserted, select action... Given that I will open the medium from Pcmanfm, which is always open on one desktop, this is an annoyance/waste of time and clicks. Is there a way to prevent the window from popping up ?
