Hi!
You can use the free VLC Player. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
Also, if you are interested in a media library player, Kodi for free will also play DVDs, but it's a bit of overkill to just play DVDs:
Kodi | Open Source Home Theatre Software
I second the motion on VLC.
The problem is that the default player does not have the codecs needed to play some commercial dvds. Pehaps others too. Microsoft stopped paying the royalties on the codecs they have shipped in past versions of Windows due to the cost (a billion dollars plus) anticipated in the number of Windows 10 giveaways during the Get Windows 10 Program.
The Windows DVD Player ($14.99) in the Store does have the codecs. It is free if you upgraded from a copy of Windows 7 or 8 that included Media Center (not the same as Media Player).
Or Potplayer. Global Potplayer
