    Prevent automatic CD tray ejection when drive icon is clicked


    Greetings community!

    I am on W10 build 19041.572 and have the following problem: When I click on my CD drive with no disc inserted, the drive opens automatically. I want this behaviour to stop. Is there a way to accomplish this?

    Thanks and have a healthy weekend!

  2. can not eject CD

    Here are two popular methods:

    • You press the Eject button on the CD tray.
    • You launch Windows Explorer, then right-click drive E: (assuming that this is your CD drive). This lets you left-click the
      Eject command.

  3. How do you fix---An error has occured while ejecting 'DVD RW Drive

    Hi,

    I will be glad to help you with the issue you have with the issue you have with the error while ejecting 'DVD RW Drive'.

    Please answer the following for us to assist you further:

    • What is the make and model of your computer?
    • How are you trying to eject the CD?
    • Do you have any pending updates?

    I would suggest you the methods below and check.

    Method 1: Run Hardware Troubleshooter

    The Hardware Troubleshooter is an automated tool which will check the hardware connected to the computer for any known issues with it and provides the details and on how to fix them. Follow these steps and run the troubleshooter.

    To do so, open Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Configure a device.

    The Hardware Troubleshooter will open. You can set it to fix the detected problems automatically or select and opt to fix only the one’s you want.

    Click on Next to run the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter. Once the scan is completed, it will present you with a report.

    Choose the ones you want to fix and click on Next.

    If the issue persist, follow method 2.

    Method 2: Bad eject button.


    • Press Windows + E on the keyboard

    • Right-click the disc drive icon and choose the option to
      eject.
    If this ejects your CD-ROM drive tray, the button on the disc drive is defective, and it is recommended that the drive be replaced, If not follow method 3.

    Method 3: Update the drivers.

    I would suggest you to update the DVD/CD-ROM drivers and check:

    Steps:

    • Press Start, click on Control Panel
    • Select Device Manager.

      Double click on DVD/CD-ROM drives.
    • Right click on the device and click
      Update Driver Software
      .
    • Select search automatically for updated driver software.
    • Restart the computer.

    Hope this information is helpful. If the issue still persists, please post back for further assistance, we'll be glad to assist you.

    Prevent automatic CD tray ejection when drive icon is clicked

    D Drive automatically ejecting CD

    When I place a CD into the D drive this message comes up "insert a disc into the drive" and the CD is automatically ejected. I have already restarted my computer several time.
