  2. Cannot burn songs to CD inserted already on to computer Error: insert a blank cd

    Hi

    In order to understand the issue in a better manner, please share the following details.


    • Are you trying to Burn Music on to the DVD inserted?

    • “Only 5 songs on the cd” is it a Read/ Write disk or a Normal disk (copy write CD)?

    Let me inform you, if you have a Normal disk with 5songs burnt and saved you will not be able to Burn the new songs again. Until and unless the disk inserted is a Read/ Write CD.

    Put an empty disk in the drive open my computer and double click on the CD inserted. And check for the status of the CD, if its CD/DVD-RW drive, if any files appear in explorer greyed out then delete them by clicking "Delete these temporary files".

    I suggest you to follow the below steps to fix the issue.

    Method 1: if you are trying to copy the songs to CD, follow the below steps.

    If the CD is copy right protected. You will not be able to copy songs to the computer if the CD is copy right protected.

    Also try to clear the burn list if any old list of songs available and try to copy again and see if it helps.

    Method 2: Windows media player settings troubleshooter

    Also try the Windows media player settings troubleshooter and see if it helps to resolve the issue.


        • Select settings in the drop down menu below search and type
          Troubleshooting.

        • Click on Troubleshooting
          and select the view all option on the left pane.

        • Click on Windows media player settings
          and follow the prompts.

    Reference:

    Burn and rip CDs - Microsoft Support

    Redirecting

    Hope this helps. If the issue persists, please do let us know and we would be happy to help you further.

    Thank You.

    CD drive error

    1) Close all open programs
    2) Click on Start, Run, and type REGEDIT and press Enter
    3) Click on the plus signs (+) next to the following folders

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    SYSTEM
    CurrentControlSet
    Control
    Class
    {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    4) This folder is the DVD/CD-ROM Drive Class Description in the registry. Look for any of the following names in the right hand column.

    UpperFilters
    LowerFilters
    UpperFilters.bak
    LowerFilters.bak
    5) If any of the above keys shown in step 4 are listed, right-click on them and choose Delete
    6) After deleting the keys, close the Registry Editor
    7) Reboot your computer
    8) Open My Computer and check to see if your CD or DVD drives have returned. You may also want to open Device Manager and verify that the yellow exclamation and error code on the CD or DVD drive is gone.

    And it likely has something to do with the emulated drive you have listed there.

    my computer stopped returning to the cd when running a program, it says insert cd when it...

    Options displayed after inserting audio CD


    After inserting audio CD there is a small popup briefly displayed at bottom right.
    " Tap to choose what happens with audio CDs"

    If I tap, it then displays a popup at top right which says
    Choose what to do with Audio CDs
    It then lists 4 options:
    VLC,
    Windows Media Player
    Dropbox
    Take no action

    How do I add a 5th option ? (ie another program which is installed on my PC)

    I want the choice of 5 options to bedisplayed every time I insert an audio CD.

    I have experimented with autoplay and default programs - neither seems to solve this problem.
