Windows 10: CyberLink Media Player 14 keeps locking up then shuts down

My Windows 10, CyberLink Media Player 14 keeps locking up, on my HP-15 laptop, then shuts down with an error message-"Can't read a file on disc", yet when I replay the disc the next day it will work fine all the way through. It happens sporadically. When it refuses to play the DVD, I've tried to put in another DVD, but it won't play. It says "No media available". Frustrating and exasperating! Only suggestion from Windows was to reset everything, delete every app, including my FREE Student Microsoft Office that I might not be able to get back again. and then, maybe, it would start up and shut down better. That is not my problem. The problem is with CyberLink Media Player &/or Windows, something along that line. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Cyberlink Power Media Player 14

I have a new laptop with Windows 10-64. It came with Cyberlink Power Media Player 14 as (I assume) the newest way to display pictures, dvds, etc. I have a DVD of old movies that I had made which was also made so that it could be copied. I put the new DVD
in after running the "movie dvd" and then told the computer to BURN a new copy. I inserted a DVD+R which it formatted and then sounded like it copied the movie onto it. When the disc drive stopped running, I ejected it and then brought up Cyberlink Power Media
Player 14 to run the new disc to see if the movie copied correctly. It started to run and then a message popped up on its screen which said that the disc in question was not an acceptable type of disc.

Some further research in Cyberlink listed various types of discs that were acceptable. It said that DVD-VR and DVD+VR were acceptable discs. Those types of discs don't seem to be on sale anywhere and Best Buy Geek Squad has no clue as to why my new copied
disc on DVD-R won't run either.

Any ideas or what I do next?
