Windows 10 Laptop Software

Worked great with my Windows 10 laptop. I did not need to use the Driver DVD.

Works well with no issues using Windows 10. Software installed easily and is simple to operate.

This is just what was needed for more flexibility during presentations. Works great with my Windows 10 laptop.

Be using it to connect a laptop to Ethernet and work works without any issues in Windows 10.

Product came fast within a couple of days. Windows 10 Pro UEFI booted very fast with this drive. Faster than my nvme running Windows 10 Pro in Legacy (Same PC). Does not boot up my software programs as fast as my nvme (obviously). Have had zero problems with this drive and running software programs for graphic design. Excellent price for a solid drive. After registering my PNY products, I was contacted by a rep. Very friendly guy who is very helpful.

Plug and play, no problems. I have always had good luck with Asus products. So far I copied my document and photo files onto double layer blu ray discs and burned a tv movie that was recorded on my hard drive to a blu ray which came out perfect. One odd thing, the enclosed software would not install, I ended up buying version 13 versus the enclosed version 8 of recording software that was included with the drive. No trouble at all with version 13, I have a feeling it had something to do with the changes in the latest Windows 10 version that the version 8 didn't like. Even with that little drawback, I'm very happy with the performance of this drive, just expect to buy some burning software if you are using the latest Windows 10 version.

I love the clamshell design - slightly depress the button to open, but it also has the backup method of opening. I use different software to burn video/photos/audio to optical disc for those who still need optical, and I have not yet tried it with my software. I purchased two of these. One is for my boss & I needed get a matching one in case he ever has any problems. This review is for both devices - one on Windows 10 pro & the other on Windows 11 pro. The Pioneer was plug and play on both devices. I have not yet downloaded the Cyberlink software, nor have I yet had time to see if this works with my existing software. I can confirm that it played back both audio and video easily on both Windows 11 pro and Windows 10 Pro. Windows 11 used Windows Media Player, and Windows 10 Pro I use VLC & another player. Easily worked well on both, and was super simple to plug and play. Glad I got it & that I no longer have to use the trusty paperclip method to open an optical drive any longer. (did not seem to matter how new they were - until this clamshell design, I have not found an optical drive that didn't need a paperclip to open it occasionally - sometimes always) This one even if it does not pop all the way open, is so easy to open & close!

I installed as per instruction on my Windows 10 desktop and worked perfectly. Great software. Highly recommended!

Do not use power2 go software included and do not use, buy, or install any version of it including 13. Does no work in windows 10 OS to recognize or see usb external burners or blu-ray burners. Just had a e-mail chats with the company and they played it down like nothing was wrong, was working ok until some update windows did and the power2go started malfunctioning. Troubleshooted the not recognizing my usb Asus blu-ray burner any more to their software problem. Used this software for years, but, not now. Told them I was dropping their software due to it not working any more in windows 10 Pro 64 OS and started using Ashampoo burning Studio 23 which works just fine and recognizes the Asus external Blu-ray usb drive. Cyberlink is not keeping up to date on their software updates and malfunctions in windows 10 environment and has dropped off the top 15 lists for burner software and their reviews are not good any more. Other that that, this drive is a great external blu-ray burner and bought as an update to the BW-12D1X-U, thou it is large and bulky and works best with desktop computers not having a blu-ray burner.

No knock on the product, but I had hoped it would connect my USB -B ported laser printer to the USB-C port on my notebook. It's an older printer and the port is USB 2.0 standard. The description for this cable said USB 2.0 so I hoped Windows would recognize the printer. The printer manufacturer (very well known Brand) does not provide a driver for Windows 10, but their Website says Windows 10 comes with a driver for it. This printer worked with my previous Windows 10 notebook via USB, and via ethernet worked with previous Windows versions back to XP. The computer would see the printer and list it's name, but would not install the driver. I tried a few other USB adapters with same problem and no luck. Turns out you need software in addition to hardware to make this conversion. I have since obtained a Startech port adapter for connecting my notebook to dual monitors, mouse, keyboard, ethernet, and the printer all through the notebooks 1 free USB-C port. Had to install drivers for the port adapter first, but now everything is working great. If you have a new printer, with installation software, this cable may work just fine. If your printer is old, you will need a port adapter with software.
