Windows 10: DVD player not working

On a Latitude E6410 running Windows 10

The TEAC DVD-ROM DV18SA will not load/run any DVD's

:)

 

Burned DVD's Work in SOME players

In that case, it is possible the problem is with the blu ray player not supporting DVD+R disks.

Suggest you check to make sure: it's possible you can overcome this problem by simply burning DVD-R instead of DVD+R. Check your blu ray compatibility list first.
