i  have recently updated my pc operating system from windows10 to windows 11. My DVD writer isn't compatible. When i go in Task manager to try to update the driver. My option is only to look at the files on my PC. my PC says the latest drivers are already installed. This is incorrect.- Task manager does not give me the option to look onto the internet  to install the latest drivers. The problem I have is,- I need to write a pdf file 250MB onto a DVD. Is there a work around, so i can do this?

Hello I managed to send the pdf file to a DVD disc in my driver slot E. I had to change the DVD to a flash drive storage device. This enabled me to cut and paste the PDF file onto it.

I suspect that it is not a driver issue.  Look at this guide to see how to complete the task without any new software.
