Hi Eugenia,

There are numerous reasons for your CD ROM not to be recognized by your system like corrupted registry entries, outdated drivers, or hardware issue. To isolate such issue, we'd like to ask a few questions:

• Which build and version of Windows 10 is currently installed on your computer? To check, click the
  Start > Settings > System >
  About.

• Are you getting any error messages?
• Were there any changes made on your computer settings prior to this issue?

You can also follow the steps

We look forward to your response.

 

CD-ROM not reading any disks

We appreciate the information that you've provided. Our next step is to consider the following methods below:

• Manually update your DVD/CD-ROM driver. There are cases wherein automatic update doesn't install the compatible driver to your device. To do this, check your device support site and ensure that you've downloaded and installed the appropriate
  driver for your device.
• Run the hardware troubleshooter to scan and automatically fix any errors preventing your
  DVD/CD-ROM to work properly. Here are the steps on how to run the troubleshooter:
  • Type Troubleshoot in the search box and press Enter.
  • Select Hardware and Devices.
  • Click Run the troubleshooter.
  • Allow the scan to complete, and then follow the on-screen instructions to complete the fix.
• Try another CD/DVD for further isolation. If your device was able recognize other
  CD/DVD then the issue is not hardware related.
