Hi,

 

Are you sure it has an Optical Disc Drive ? I can't find it on the following manual

 

          https://www.itouchbiometrics.com/Manuals/HP_G3.pdf

 

If yes it has, please try to use Windows Explorer

 

  (a) Right click

  (b) Select reject.

 

Regards.

BH

Yes, I m sure. Been long in computers and never saw a high quality computer with such a poor quality drive. Still, I was able to open it. Now I will be looking for A utility to do opening and closing. Thanks for yoru help

For all the people who would like to know how to open a CD tray like mine that does not open on its own....

I searched long enough and finally I was rewarded!

If you are using WIN10 here is the shortcut:  CTRL+SHIFT+O (this is letter "o" for open) not numeral 0.

 

Best wishes to all for a safe and peaceful Labor Day.
