I have created a file named autorun.inf to make one of my software setup run when the usb is plugged into Windows 8/8.1 OS .

This is my autorun.inf code: 

[AutoRun]
shellexecute="Mem.exe //It would be nice if i could add path to this like my Doc//mem.exe
UseAutoPlay=1

Is there any software that let's us to create auto-run files for USB Sticks?

Is there any way to add new options in right click menu only on my USB window?

Windows 8 does not have a autorun on usb for security reasons. But there is a workaround in this article. You need to separate the usb into two partitions, and make Windows believe one is a CDROM. This will bypass the security on windows.
