Cannot find a way to insert CD in Windows 10.

Hello,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience caused and will assist you in resolving the issue.



From the above description, I understand you cannot find the drive to insert CD/DVD on HP Elitebook 540W laptop.



You can not only press the external button located on the device to open CD/DVD drive slot but can eject the drive through the File Explorer option as well.



To open CD/DVD drive, I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if the issue is resolved:

• 
  Press Windows logo + E keys on the keyboard and select
  This PC from the left side panel of the window.
  
• 
  Right click on DVD Drive drive located under
  Device and drives and select Eject option.
  
• 
  Check if the drive slot to insert the CD will open.
  

Write to us with the status of the issue on the same post for further assistance.
Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.



Thank you.

 

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.
