Windows 10: CD ROM Drive not being reinstalled.

Hello. I need some help, but I'm not sure if I should ask for it here. Anyway, my CD ROM drive wasn't reading my disc, so I looked up how to fix it. Apparently, a common solution was to uninstall my driver via the device manager. It said that after I restarted my computer, it would detect it, and it would reappear in the device manager, but it hasn't. Does anyone have a solution?

CD-ROM Drive Info.

Hi Dan,

What's the make and model of your CD/DVD Drive? Some manufacturers put a sticker on the device where the speed and other relevant information are indicated. However, you may look into the System Information of your PC to get more details about your CD-ROM.
If the information is not available, then we suggest that you check the details from the manufacturer's website.

To check in System Information:

• In the Cortana search, search for System Information and open it.
• Under System Summary, expand Components by clicking the
  + sign.
• Under Multimedia, click CD-ROM.
• Look for the burning speed of your CD-ROM in the left pane.

If the burning speed is not indicated, then we suggest that you visit its manufacturer's website for more information about the device.

Let us know if you need further help.

Regards.
