  3. Windows 10 won't play, rip, or recognize any audio cd's

    I just upgraded to Windows 10 and now when I put a cd in the drive it won't play them or even recognize that there's a cd in the drive. Windows Media Player would always play the cd and I would use that program to rip music. Even File Explorer doesn't
    even list or recognize that there is a cd in the drive. I have new cd's that I want to rip into my computer and I cannot and it's really starting to frustrate me. Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone have a solution or have a suggestion on how to
    fix this issue?

    CD plays one disc incorrectly

    For us to isolate the issue, we would like to clarify if you were referring to another computer when you said
    "The CD plays fine elsewhere so it is OK." on your first post. If so, is it both running Windows 10 version?

    To identify the exact reason why the issue is happening, we suggest playing the disc manually using the steps below:

    • Type File Explorer on Cortana/Search bar, then click it.
    • On the File Explorer window, click This PC.
    • Right-click on the CD drive then, click Open.

    • The music files will show up, choose a certain music to play.

    Let us know if the music will respond accordingly.
