Windows 10: Burning Audio CD in Windows 10

I am trying to burn an audio cd in Windows 10 using CD/RW discs.


Before Windows 10, burning an audio cd was easy.


Now, anytime I try to burn an audio cd, the file extensions are automatically changed from .wav or .mp3 to .cda files.


I am trying to burn an audio cd that will successfully play in various cd players, not just on a pc.


Can anyone help? I have contacted and talked with a Microsoft person but they couldn't help.


It seems that the problem is with Windows 10.


Thank you

:)

Audio CD Burning Error

Hi Ruby,

Incompatible drivers and software can cause the error message that you're getting when burning audio CD. Since you have tried to update the driver to its latest version, we suggest that you
try reinstalling the driver. Here's how:

• Open Device Manager.
• Right-click (or tap and hold) the name of the device.
• Select Uninstall.
• Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.
• Try burning the audio CD once more and check if the error will appear again.

Should the issue remains the same, you can
perform clean boot. Follow the steps under Windows 10 from the link provided to eliminate software conflicts.

Let us know how it goes, we'll be glad to help you further.

 

Burning photos to a CD Disc

Hi Jimmy,

We suggest that you use Windows Media Player to burn the images. Please follow the steps below:

• Open Windows Media Player.
• In the Player Library > Burn tab > select
  Burn options.
• Choose Audio CD or Data CD or DVD.
• Insert a blank disc into your CD or DVD burner. (Select the drive you want to use if your PC has more than one CD or DVD drive)
• Search for the items in your Player Library that you want to burn to the disc, and then drag them to the list pane (on the right side of the Player Library) to create a burn list.
• When you're finished with the list, select Start burn.

Note: If necessary, click the Clear list button to remove all items from the previous burn list.

Let us know how it goes.
