Hi everyone,
My dvd drive is not showing, it is in the device manager list but not listed in file explorer. I have tried every fix I can find but nothing works. Can somebody please help me solve this problem.

Give this fix a try:CD/DVD not showing on file explorer
Or this:https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...other-programs
Have you tried this:https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...5-cdd01d56e2f8
Thanks for suggesting the https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...5-cdd01d56e2f8, I tried it and unfortunately it didn't work either.
Go to Start/Search and type diskmgmt.msc, right click the diskmgmt results and Run As Administrator, in the Elevated Disk Management Window in the lower pane, if your DVD drive is showing, right click it and choose Change Drive Letter or Paths, choose a different drive letter that is not being used.
I tried the diskmgmt.m, changed the drive letter and still no luck :-( I am going to chuck it out the window soon! thanks for the suggestion though.
This is a screen shot of the disk management screen.
