    Dvd drive not showing

    Is this the HP 15r014tx in your system specs? If so, try the steps in this thread....
    https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebo...r/td-p/6186456

    It may be that your DVD drive has a hardware failure (as was suggested in that thread).

    More HP support and diagnosis suggestions here in their Help pages....

    how do I open the cd/dvd disk drive on the back of the HP envy all-in-one?

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    For better clarity, please let us know:



    • When you say, “how do I open the cd/dvd disk drive on the back” are you not able to open the drive to enter a disk or trying to replace the drive?
    • What is the exact model number of the HP Envy PC that you are using? To check type:
      msinfo32 in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
      Enter.


    If the CD/DVD drive is not getting detected on the computer, I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the HP article
    HP PCs - CD/DVD Drive Is Not Detected (Windows 10, 8).



    If you are unable to burn CD/DVD using the drive, I suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the HP article

    HP PCs - CD or DVD Drive Cannot Burn Discs (Windows 10, 8)    .



    Please provide more information on the issue that you are facing to help you with the appropriate steps.



    Regards,

    Nikhar Khare

    DVD Drive not opening

    Windows 10 and External DVD drive

    Hi,

    Thank you for keeping us posted.

    I would suggest you to open the device manager and check if the drive shows up in device manager.

    Follow the steps given below:

    1. Press Windows key + R to open the run command.

    2. Type devmgmt.msc and press enter to open device manager.

    3. Expand DVD/CD-Rom drives and check if the external DVD drive is listed.

    4. If so, right click on it and uninstall it.

    5. Restart the computer.

    Let us know the result.
