  3. mmy dvd wont play

    Hi Kristopher,

    A DVD may won't play on Windows 10 when it doesn't have a proper DVD playback software or that something is wrong with your CD/DVD drive. To isolate your concern, we'd like to ask the following:

    • Have you made any recent changes prior to the issue?
    • Are you getting any error messages when trying to play a DVD? If so, could you possibly send us a screenshot?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?

    We'll be looking forward to your response.
