If the old editions of Windows included a basic reader DVD, this is no longer the case with Windows 10. The Windows Media Center has definitely left us and is no longer compatible with the latest version of the operating system. It is therefore advisable to turn to a third-party application, or to rely on the Microsoft application. Windows DVD Player. Problem: it is chargeable and offers very few possibilities.
Windows DVD Player: too expensive and too simplistic
There’s no shortage of software to play DVDs in Windows 10. But when there is one that has been developed by Microsoft, we say that we will be quiet and that we will benefit from stable and complete software. This software is Windows DVD Player, francized as Windows DVD player.
This application is available in the Microsoft Store. If former users of Windows 7 and 8.1 can benefit when they migrate to Windows 10, this is not the case for those who use a new system license. As a result of which you have to pay the sum of € 14.99 to use Windows DVD Player. Note however that a free 7-day trial is possible, to get an idea of the possibilities of the application.
Anger is mounting on the web: the application is ultimately very basic and is limited to DVDs. You can’t use it to launch a Blu-Ray disc, for example. Internet users go wild by assigning bad ratings to software on the Microsoft Store. And comments burst out: “pure and hard scam”, “others are doing just as well, even better”, “triple zero” … Here is a sample of the messages that can be found on the download platform of Microsoft. Dissatisfied Internet users point out that there are many applications of the genre, which are free, such as the unbound VLC, which you can customize in any way.
