    why won't my dvd player format a new DVD-R

    One of the possible reasons of your concern is when the type of format is not supported. To help us determine the appropriate troubleshooting steps, we'd like to ask the following questions:

    • What is the make and model of your device?
    • Are you getting an error message when formatting a new DVD-R?
    • Are you using a third-party application when formatting a new DVD-R?
    • Can you describe to us the process that you performed when formatting a new DVD-R?
    • Were you able to successfully format the same type of disc prior to your concern?
    We look forward to your response.

    Windows Was About To Format My DVD-R Drive

    No DVD-R drive in device manager or This PC after upgrading to Windows


    Hi,

    I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 a few weeks ago and since that time I don't have a DVD – R drive. I still have my DVD – RW, but the other drive is missing from the device manager and the computer list. What happened to it? What steps can I take to recover it.

    Thank You!
