    How to set a default app when double-clicking on an external USB DVD Drive icon in Windows 10?


    I'm using Windows 10 Pro 22H2 with an external USB DVD drive and I'm having issues with the DVD icon selected in the image below. I have VLC Media Player associated with DVDs, and it works the way I want when:inserting a DVD, i.e. it autoplays in VLC;right-clicking on the icon and selecting "Play with VLC media player" in the context menu, i.e. it plays in VLC; andright-clicking on the icon and selecting "Open AutoPlay..." in the context menu, i.e. it plays in VLC.Whenever I double-click on the icon or right-click and select "Play" in the context menu, however, an error message appears
