Where the $#%!$@ is "Windows Disc Image Burner" ?

Hi Gregory. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 9 year Windows MVP, here to help you.

If you want to complain to Microsoft use the Feedback Hub app in Start Menu where developers are tasked to process consumer feedback. But Microsoft will not even see it here because this is a tech forums where we are mostly volunteers trying to help solve your problems.

When I right click on an ISO in Version 1809 I still have Burn DIsk Image and haven't ever seen reported as missing. Do you have another image burning program installed like ImgBurn? You may need to use it until you do a Clean Install or perhaps a version Upgrade which will replace Image Burner. http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=Download

If you want to check over your install then Go over this checklist to make sure the install is set up correctly, optimized for best performance, and any needed repairs get done: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki...

Start with Step 4 to turn off Startup freeloaders which can conflict and cause issues, then Step 7 to check for infection the most thorough way, then step 10 to check for damaged System Files. Then continue with the other steps to go over your install most thoroughly.

If nothing else helps you can run a Repair Install by installing the Media Creation Tool and choosing from it to Upgrade Now. This reinstalls Windows in about an hour while saving your files, apps and most settings, solves many problems while also bringing it up to the latest version 1809 which you need anyway and by the most stable method. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/m...

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.

I am on Windows 10 Pro v1809. I found after updating to 1809 that all my previous file association were gone but

double clicking on a .iso file brought up the Windows Disc Image Burner in v1809.

In earlier versions of Windows I had associated .iso files with ImgBurn.

In v1809 you seem to have to tell Windows to Open With and select the program you want to burn with.

The file association bug needs fixing !

Hi Gregory,

That option is in Windows 10 (see screenshot from My PC below) . . .

There may be something wrong with your Windows Installation that is causing that option to not appear . . .

Click your Start Button, type winver and hit Enter

On the resulting dialog, what version of Windows 10 are you running?
