仍然需要 CD、DVD^(DVDs)和蓝光^(Blu-ray)光盘。无论是离线存储音乐和电影，还是归档重要文档，基于磁盘的存储仍然存在。大多数设备没有内置 CD、DVD或蓝光^(Blu-Ray)驱动器。幸运的是，您可以获得外部DVD 驱动器^{(DVD drive)}，并且 Windows 10 和 11 仍然能够将数据刻录到光盘。

Windows 内置光盘刻录软件^{(Windows Built-in Disc Burning Software)}

Microsoft有两个工具可用于刻录^(Microsoft)Windows操作系统中内置的光盘。Windows 文件资源管理器^{(Windows File Explorer)}可以格式化光盘以用作闪存驱动器或刻录光盘以与 CD 或DVD播放器一起使用。它还可以将ISO映像文件刻录到光盘上。Windows Media Player可以刻录要与 CD 或DVD播放器一起使用的光盘。看看两者，看看哪一个最适合你。

要设置默认刻录机，您可以选择第一次插入空白光盘。

1. 将^(Insert)空白 CD 或DVD光盘插入您的 PC。如果这是您第一次插入空白光盘，则会收到一条通知，询问您希望对空白 CD 进行什么操作。点击^(Click)通知。

1. 选择刻录音频 CD^{(Burn an audio CD)}以使用 Windows Media Player 或将文件刻录到光盘^{(Burn files to disc )}以在您下次插入空白光盘时自动使用文件资源管理器。^{(File Explorer)}

^(Burn)使用Windows 资源管理器^{(Windows Explorer)}刻录CD 或DVD^(DVDs)以像USB 闪存驱动器一样使用^{(USB Flash Drive)}

此方法假定您已将 Windows 设置为自动使用文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}刻录光盘。如果没有，只需在插入空白光盘后打开文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}，即可使用该实用程序。为此，您必须使用 CD-RW 或 DVD-RW 格式的光盘。

1. 当文件资源管理器的刻录光盘^{(Burn a Disc )}窗口打开时，输入光盘标题：^{(Disc title:)}然后选择像 USB 闪存驱动器^{(Like a USB flash drive)}和下一步^(Next)。

文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}将格式化光盘，因此它就像USB闪存驱动器一样工作。这个过程大约需要一分钟。

1. 文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}将打开。最简单的方法是打开另一个文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}窗口，导航到要添加的文件，选择它们，然后将它们拖放到专注于光盘的文件资源管理器中。^{(File Explorer)}

文件被添加到光盘中。根据数量和大小，这可能需要几秒钟或几分钟。不过，它不如USB闪存驱动器快。

1. 您可以删除、添加甚至编辑文件名。进行任何更改后，选择Drive Tools，然后选择Eject以取出光盘。要稍后检索或添加文件，请弹出光盘，Windows会将其识别为可重写光盘。

^(Burn)使用Windows 资源管理器^{(Windows Explorer)}刻录CD 或DVD以与 CD 或DVD 播放器^{(DVD Player)}一起使用

此方法假定您已将 Windows 设置为使用文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}自动刻录光盘。如果没有，只需在插入空白光盘后打开文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}，即可使用该实用程序。

您可以为此使用任何空白 CD 或DVD格式的光盘。如果您使用 CD-RW 或DVD -RW 光盘，它将不再是可重写的。这些光盘适用于 PC，但不一定适用于所有其他 CD 或DVD播放器。CD-R 和DVD -R 光盘最适合这种情况，而且它们也更便宜。

1. 当文件资源管理器的刻录光盘^{(Burn a Disc )}窗口打开时，输入光盘标题：^{(Disc title:)}并选择With a CD/DVD player 和下一步^(Next)。

1. 文件资源管理器将打开其驱动器工具^{(Drive Tools )}和选择的光盘。打开另一个文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}以从硬盘驱动器或SSD中选择文件是最简单的

拖放到光盘上。

1. 将所需的所有文件添加到光盘后，选择Drive Tools，然后选择Finish Burning。

确保光盘标题正确并选择刻录速度。根据您拥有的CD/DVD刻录机的类型，这可能是 4x 到 48x 之间的任何地方。这意味着它的写入速度将比光盘读取速度快 4 到 48 倍。速度越高，失败或产生劣质产品的可能性就越大，因此请明智地选择。如果您确定不会刻录另一个副本，请选择在文件刻录后关闭向导^{(Close the wizard after the files have been burned)}。然后选择下一步^(Next)。

光盘刻录完成后，选择是，如果您想制作另一个副本，请将这些文件刻录到另一张光盘。^{(Yes, burn these files to another disc)}否则，选择完成^{(Finish )}关闭向导。

^(Burn)使用Windows Media Player刻录CD 和DVD^(DVDs)

您可以使用 Microsoft 的内置Windows Media Player应用程序来刻录音频 CD 和数据 CD 和DVD^(DVDs)。音频 CD 可以在 PC 和大多数 CD 播放器上运行。数据^(Data)CD 和DVD^(DVDs)可用于存储数据文件或音乐和视频。包含音乐和视频的数据^(Data)磁盘可以在计算机上播放，并且可以在某些 CD 和DVD播放器上播放。请与您的 CD 或DVD播放器制造商确认。

^{(Burn Audio CDs)}使用Windows Media Player刻录音频 CD

1. 在您的 PC 中使用一张空白 CD，打开Windows Media Player并导航到您的音乐库中的音乐^(Music)部分。然后选择刻录^(Burn)选项卡。在右上角附近，选择小选项按钮。在打开的菜单中，选择Audio CD。

1. ^(Drag)将歌曲从Windows Media Player的主窗口^{(Windows Media Player)}拖放到刻录^(Burn)列表区域。

1. 您可以返回选项列表并就音乐的排序方式、光盘命名和其他选项做出其他选择。选择更多刻录选项^{(More burn options )}以微调光盘。

例如，在“刻录”选项卡下的“^{(Burn )}选项^{(Options )}”窗口中，您可以调整刻录速度、跨曲目应用音量调节、消除歌曲之间的间隙以及将刻录文件列表添加到 CD。默认值对大多数人来说都很好。选择确定^{(OK )}返回 Windows Media Player。

1. 准备就绪后，选择开始刻录^{(Start Burn)}。刻录完成后，光盘会弹出。

^{(Burn Data CDs)}使用Windows Media Player刻录数据 CD和DVD^(DVDs)

此方法用于将纯数据、音乐或视频刻录到 CD 和DVD^(DVDs)。以这种方式制作的音乐^(Music)和视频 CD 和DVD^(DVDs)可能无法在所有 CD 和DVD播放器上播放，但它们可以在任何 PC 上播放。这不是制作DVD^(DVDs)的最佳方式，但它确实有效。不幸的是，微软在^(Microsoft)Windows 7之后停止包含Windows DVD Maker。要使用经典DVD菜单、字幕^(subtitles)等进行正确的DVD创作，请查看下方“刻录蓝光光盘^{(Burn Blu-ray Discs)}”部分中建议的DVD 刻录^{(DVD-burning)}软件应用程序。

1. 使用光驱中的空白 CD 或DVD，打开Windows Media Player并选择刻录^(Burn)选项卡。然后选择选项^{(Options )}按钮并确保选择了数据^(Data)CD 或DVD。通常，它默认为这个，但最好确定一下。

1. 转到包含要刻录的数据、音乐或视频的库部分。然后，将媒体拖放到刻录列表^{(Burn list )}区域。

1. 选择开始刻录^{(Start burn )}以刻录光盘。刻录完成后，光盘刻录机会将光盘弹出。

将 ISO 光盘映像刻录到 CD 或 DVD

ISO光盘映像^{(disc images)}往往用于操作系统或更大的应用程序甚至游戏。ISO文件允许在保持目录结构的同时将大量文件存储到一个文件中。因此，当您安装ISO时，其中的任何内容都会按预期运行。它也是可引导磁盘的首选格式。这适用于DVD^(DVDs)和 CD，但请确保光盘有足够的容量存储ISO文件。

1. 将^(Insert)空白光盘插入光盘刻录机。接下来，打开Windows 资源管理器^{(Windows Explorer)}并导航到要刻录的ISO 。在Windows 11中，右键单击ISO文件并选择显示更多选项，^{(Show more options, )}或选择文件并按Shift + F10。

然后选择刻录光盘映像^{(Burn disc image)}。

在Windows 10中，只需右键单击并选择刻录光盘映像^{(Burn disc image)}。

1. 在Windows 光盘映像刻录^{(Windows Disc Image Burner)}机窗口中，您可以选择使用哪个光盘刻录机或在刻录后验证光盘^{(Verify disc after burning)}。它将默认为您的主刻录机，并且大多数情况下，不需要验证光盘。选择刻录^{(Burn )}继续。

            刻录完成后，光盘将弹出。选择关闭^{(Close )}以结束会话。

在 Windows 11/10 中刻录蓝光光盘

事实证明，Windows操作系统中没有任何内容可用于刻录蓝光^(Blu-ray)光盘。此外，大多数Windows PC^{(Windows PCs)}和笔记本电脑不配备任何类型的光盘读取器或刻录机。所以你需要一个蓝光^(Blu-ray)刻录机和蓝光^(Blu-ray)刻录软件。确保您也拥有正确的蓝光光盘类型^{(right Blu-ray disc type)}。

这三个免费应用程序具有良好、悠久的历史，并且继续运行良好。您可能会从 90 年代末和 2000 年代初的洪流下载全盛时期认出CDBurnerXP、ImgBurn和Ashampoo Burning Studio Free 。

CDBurnerXP看起来很老派，顾名思义就是 XP 部分。尽管如此，它仍然是一款可靠的蓝光和DVD刻录软件。它是三款中唯一一款具有便携式应用选项的，因此可以从USB闪存驱动器运行。

ImgBurn可能看起来像一个Windows 7应用程序，但它可以很好地刻录任何类型的光盘，包括蓝光^(Blu-ray)。还有一个强大的ImgBurn社区论坛，其中包含大量指南，可以帮助您做任何事情。

Ashampoo Burning Studio Free是另一个已经存在很长时间的免费应用程序。它确实得到了更新，如下面的应用程序设计所示。Ashampoo Burning Studio Free需要您通过电子邮件注册才能使用该软件，而ImgBurn则不需要。

烧伤，宝贝，烧伤

如果您仍在摇摆 CD 播放器，或者更喜欢在周五晚上播放^(Friday)DVD或蓝光^(Blu-ray)而不是Netflix并放松一下，那么所有工具和信息都触手可及。或者你已经有喜欢的刻录软件了？请^(Please)在评论中告诉我们。

How to Burn CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray Discs in Windows 11/10

There’s still a need for CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray discs. Whether it’s for musiс and movieѕ when you go off-the-grid or for archiving important documents, disk-based storage is still hеre. Most deνices don’t havе a built-in CD, DVD, or Blu-Ray drivе. Fortυnately, you can get an external DVD drive, and Windows 10 and 11 are still capable of burning data to discs.

Windows Built-in Disc Burning Software

Microsoft has two tools to burn discs built into the Windows operating system. Windows File Explorer can format discs to be used as a flash drive or burn discs to be used with CD or DVD player. It can also burn an ISO image file to a disc. Windows Media Player can burn discs to be used with CD or DVD players. Look at both and see which is the right one for you.

To set a default burner, you can choose the first time you insert a blank disc.

1. Insert a blank CD or DVD disc into your PC. If this is your first time inserting a blank disc, a notification will ask what you want to happen with blank CDs. Click on the notification.

1. Choose either Burn an audio CD to use Windows Media Player or Burn files to disc to use File Explorer automatically next time you insert a blank disc.

Burn CDs or DVDs to Use Like a USB Flash Drive with Windows Explorer

This method assumes you have Windows set to automatically use File Explorer to burn discs. If not, just open File Explorer after inserting the blank disc, and the utility is available. You must use a CD-RW or DVD-RW format disc for this.

1. When File Explorer’s Burn a Disc window opens, enter a Disc title: and select Like a USB flash drive and Next.

File Explorer will format the disc, so it works like a USB flash drive. This process takes about a minute.

1. File Explorer will open. It’s easiest to open another File Explorer window, navigate to the files you want to add, select them and then drag and drop them into the File Explorer that’s focused on the disc.

The files get added to the disc. Depending on the amount and size, this could take a few seconds or minutes. It’s not as fast as a USB flash drive, though.

1. You can remove, add, or even edit file names. After any changes, select Drive Tools, then Eject to remove the disc. To retrieve or add files later, pop in the disc, and Windows will recognize it as a rewritable disc.

Burn CD or DVD to Use with a CD or DVD Player with Windows Explorer

This method assumes you have Windows set to use File Explorer to burn discs automatically. If not, just open File Explorer after inserting the blank disc, and the utility is available.

You can use any blank CD or DVD format disc for this. If you use a CD-RW or DVD-RW disc, it will not be rewritable anymore. These discs will work on PCs but not necessarily all other CD or DVD players. CD-R and DVD-R discs are best for this, and they’re cheaper too.

1. When File Explorer’s Burn a Disc window opens, enter a Disc title: and select With a CD/DVD player and Next.

1. File Explorer will open with its Drive Tools and the disc selected. It’s easiest to open another File Explorer to select files from the hard drive or SSD to

drag and drop onto the disc.

1. Once you have added all the files you want to the disc, select Drive Tools, then Finish Burning.

Ensure the disc title is correct and choose a recording speed. Depending on the type of CD/DVD burner you have, this could be anywhere from 4x to 48x. This means it will write 4 to 48 times faster than the disc read speed. The higher the speed, the greater chance of it failing or creating a poor quality product, so choose wisely. If you’re sure you’re not going to burn another copy, choose to Close the wizard after the files have been burned. Then select Next.

When the disc burning is finished, opt for Yes, burn these files to another disc if you want to make another copy. Otherwise, select Finish to close the wizard.

Burn CDs and DVDs with Windows Media Player

You can use Microsoft’s built-in Windows Media Player app to burn audio CDs and data CDs and DVDs. The audio CDs will work on PCs and most CD players. Data CDs and DVDs can be used for data files or music and videos. Data disks with music and videos will play on computers and may play on some CD and DVD players. Check with your CD or DVD player maker to be sure.

Burn Audio CDs with Windows Media Player

1. With a blank CD in your PC, open Windows Media Player and navigate to the Music part of your library. Then select the Burn tab. Near the top-right corner, select the small options button. In the menu that opens, select Audio CD.

1. Drag and drop songs from the main window of Windows Media Player into the Burn list area.

1. You can go back to the options list and make other choices about how the music is sorted, name the disc, and other options. Select More burn options to fine-tune the disc.

For instance, in the Options window under the Burn tab, you can adjust the burn speed, apply volume leveling across tracks, remove gaps between songs and add a list of burned files to the CD. The default values are fine for most people. Select OK to return to Windows Media Player.

1. When you’re ready, select Start Burn. The disc will pop out when the burn is finished.

Burn Data CDs and DVDs with Windows Media Player

This method is for burning plain data, music, or video to CDs and DVDs. Music and video CDs and DVDs made this way may not play on all CD and DVD players, but they will work on any PC. It’s not the best way to make DVDs, but it works. Unfortunately, Microsoft stopped including Windows DVD Maker after Windows 7. For proper DVD authoring with classic DVD menus, subtitles, and more, check out the DVD-burning software apps suggested in the Burn Blu-ray Discs section below.

1. With a blank CD or DVD in the optical drive, open Windows Media Player and select the Burn tab. Then select the Options button and make sure Data CD or DVD is selected. Normally, it defaults to this, but it’s good to be sure.

1. Go to the part of the library that has the data, music, or video that you want to burn. Then, drag and drop the media to the Burn list area.

1. Select Start burn to burn the disc. When the burning is complete, the disc burner will pop the disc out.

Burn ISO Disc Image to CD or DVD

ISO disc images tend to be for operating systems or larger applications and even games. ISO files allow for storing a large number of files into one while maintaining the directory structure. So when you mount the ISO, whatever is in it will run as intended. It’s the preferred format for bootable disks too. This works on DVDs and CDs but make sure the disc has enough capacity for the ISO file.

1. Insert a blank disc into the disc burner. Next, open Windows Explorer and navigate to the ISO you want to burn. In Windows 11, right-click on the ISO file and select Show more options, or select the file and press Shift + F10.

Then select Burn disc image.

In Windows 10, just right-click and select Burn disc image.

1. In the Windows Disc Image Burner window, you can select which disc burner to use or to Verify disc after burning. It will default to your main burner, and most of the time, discs don’t need to be verified. Select Burn to continue.

            Once the burn completes, the disc will pop out. Select Close to end the session.

Burn Blu-ray Discs in Windows 11/10

It turns out there’s nothing in the Windows operating system for burning Blu-ray discs. Also, most Windows PCs and laptops don’t come with an optical disc reader or burner of any kind. So you need a Blu-ray burner and Blu-ray burning software. Make sure you have the right Blu-ray disc type, too.

These three free apps have a good, long history and continue to work well. You may recognize CDBurnerXP, ImgBurn, and Ashampoo Burning Studio Free from the heyday of torrent downloads in the late 90s and early 2000s.

CDBurnerXP looks old-school, as the XP part of the name suggests. Still, it’s a solid Blu-ray and DVD burner software. It’s the only one of the three that has a portable app option so it can be run from a USB flash drive.

ImgBurn may look like a Windows 7 app, yet it works well to burn any type of disc, including Blu-ray. There’s also a strong ImgBurn community forum with plenty of guides to help you do just about anything.

Ashampoo Burning Studio Free is another free app that’s been around a long time. It does get updated though, as reflected in the app design below. Ashampoo Burning Studio Free does require you to register with an email to use the software, while ImgBurn doesn’t.

Burn, Baby, Burn

If you’re still rocking a CD player or prefer to pop in a DVD or Blu-ray on Friday night instead of Netflix and chill, you’ve got all the tools and info at your fingertips to do it. Or do you already have a favorite burning software? Please let us know in the comments.
