Bruce, "What" worked the 2nd time? I'm having the same problem.
I have uninstalled the driver and rebooted, and it did not work. My driver is CDDVDW TS-L633P Thanks, Diane

hi Diane,
I believe Bruce ran the command more than once and then it worked.
However the command has the potential to work only if there is no CD/DVD drive showing up in the Device Manager.
If the CD/DVD drive does show up in the Device Manager but with an error or as an "Other device" then the issue is elsewhere.
Is the drive in your case showing up in the Device Manager but with an error?
Do you have a Toshiba computer?

Yes and yes. I have a Toshiba laptop (old, but still works), and yes the CD/DVD drive DOES show up in device manager, with error code 19. Thank-you Auggie for your reply, Diane
