Burning a CD or DVD on Windows 10 is a straightforward process that requires only a few steps. Whether you’re creating a music CD, backing up files, or creating a bootable disk, this tutorial will guide you through the process of burning a CD or DVD using Windows 10.
Step 1: Insert a Blank Disc Insert a blank CD or DVD into your computer’s disc drive. Windows 10 should recognize the disc automatically, and a dialog box will appear asking what you want to do with the disc.
Step 2: Choose What to Do with the Disc Choose the “Burn files to disc” option if you want to create a data disc, or choose the “Audio CD” or “MP3 CD” option if you’re creating a music CD. You can also choose to use third-party software to burn the disc.
Step 3: Name the Disc After selecting the option you want, give your disc a name in the “Disc title” field.
Step 4: Add Files If you’re creating a data disc, drag and drop the files you want to burn onto the disc’s folder. If you’re creating a music CD, click on the “Add” button and select the songs you want to burn. You can also add or remove files later if necessary.
Step 5: Burn the Disc Click on the “Burn” button to start the burning process. Depending on the size of the files, the burning process may take several minutes or longer. Once the process is complete, the disc will automatically eject.
Step 6: Verify the Disc After the burning process is complete, Windows 10 will verify the disc’s contents to ensure that all the files have been burned correctly. If any errors are found, you may need to burn the disc again.
That’s it! You’ve successfully burned a CD or DVD on Windows 10. Keep in mind that the process may vary slightly depending on your computer’s hardware and software configuration.
