    DVDs won't play with my Windows 10 PC


    I purchased a new ASUS PC about 2 years ago which runs on Windows 10. I am not able to play movies on DVDs, regardless if they are genuine DVDs or movies burnt to a DVD. I am however able to play audio CDs no problem. After inserting a DVD into the drive, the title will be displayed when looking in File Explorer/This PC, but the movie won't start. Here is what I did so far:


    1. Autorun is enabled

    2. I have the latest driver installed

    3. Tried uninstalling/re-installing the DVD, same issue

    4. I have verified the DVD region, it is set to Region 1 (Canada/US)

    5. Tried to open Windows Media Player and open the movie file, WMP says "no disk".


    Interesting fact is that I have connected an external DVD player to this PC and I'm experiencing the same issue. This tells me that the problem may not be related to the driver or even the DVD player itself. Any thoughts? What else could prevent the DVD to play? I really don't know what else I can do. Thanks for your help.

    :)

    DVDs won't play with my Windows 10 PC

    playing a DVD on PC with Windows 10

    Hi,



    In order for us to determine the troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue, we'd like to clarify the following:




    • What happens when you try to play a DVD?

    • Did you try a different DVD?

    • Did you get any error messages?

    • Are you able to see the content of DVD on the file explorer?

    • What is the file format of the files inside the DVD?



    Regards.
