Windows 10: Does Windows 10 have a CD/DVDR copying/creating software?

I am trying to copy some CDs and DVDs with medical imaging on them and also create a DVD from DICOM images I downloaded from the medical group. Does Windows 10 come with any software to do this or do I have to install some other software like Nero?

:)

making copies of CD in windows 10

Hi Ahamed,

When you copy music, pictures, and videos from your PC to a blank CD or DVD, it's called "burning." When you copy music, pictures, and videos from a CD or DVD to your PC, it's called "ripping." You can use Windows Media Player to do both. May we know what
type of file are you copying?

If in any case you need to make multiple copies of a CD, there are downloadable 3rd party applications that can perform such operation with ease.

To copy a CD with only one DVD drive, kindly follow these steps:

• Insert the CD you want to copy into the DVD drive.
• Create a location folder and copy the contents of the CD to the folder.
• Remove the CD from the DVD drive.
• Insert the blank CD, and then burn the contents of the folder into the new CD.
  

For additional information, see
Burn and rip CD's.

Note: Steps provided in the above article may also apply in Windows 10.

Let us know if you need further assistance.
