Windows 10: Windows 10 Home version 2004 Autoplay does not work

I have tried all of the answers and I have reset all defaults, uninstalled and reinstalled the hardware, drivers etc. NONE of that has fixed this issue. I have on my laptop two programs available to run dvds. "Any Player" and "Movies and TV". When I put in a DVD movie I get the question: Select to choose what happens/Choose what to do with DVD movies and then my only two options are Take no Action OR FIND A NEW DVD APP store. I even went down that rabbithole and installed a dvd app from the store. That does not work.


When I right click on the DVD drive from explorer and select "Open Autoplay" I am only given the choices of Take no Action OR FIND A NEW DVD APP store.


When I try to set a default app in the control panel for DVDs I ONLY get those options, or open folder or ask me everytime.


I need a solution. I need to be told how to set autoplay to use my default player, currently "Any Player" and it needs to work. I look forward to a solution.
