  2. Window 10 will not let me burn my pictures on CD-RW

    Hi Judy,

    CD-RW needs a more sensitive optical lens to read or write on it. There is a possibility that your CD burner can't write on a CD-RW. To isolate the issue, kindly answer the following questions:

    • What app are you using to burn on the CD-RW?
    • Have you tried using a CD-R or another CD-RW?
    • Were you able to burn on a CD-RW using the same CD burner prior to this issue?
    • Were there any changes made to your computer before this?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    We're looking forward to your response.

    CD-RW

    In theory at least, a CD-RW disc as you describe it should be readable on an computer that has an optical drive capable of reading writing CD-RW discs, which is most optical drives these days. I say "in theory" because formatting/writing on CD-RWs is
    a very dodgy thing in general. You're much better off in using a USB flash drive.

    Write Protected DVD-RW, can't format


    DVD-RW are re-writable correct? I tired to format it and it said i couldn't because of write protection is there any way i can remove the write protection on it?
