A Handy Application to Restore Optical Drive

DVD Drive Repair is a software application that helps restore your optical or DVD drive. It also comes in handy when specific applications don’t recognise the drive.

Complete Repair and Restoration

DVD Drive Repair comes in of significant help when your computer is up against a virus attack or a hardware issue that hinders regular DVD drive usage. When an optical drive is having problems getting recognised even when the operating system is fine, the standard way out is reinstalling the OS or restoring its previous version. DVD Drive Repair renders such measures unnecessary, helping save time and money in the process. Before attempting to get back the DVD drive, have a System Restore point in place as a backup plan, in case things go wrong. Also, it’s recommended the device firmware is updated to the recent version.

Simple Interface

DVD Drive Repair’s interface is quite simple and lets you carry out a range of actions with a few clicks. The drive problems can be fixed without editing registry keys or dealing with other complicated settings. You just have to download the repair tool, hit the button on the primary interface and reboot the system. The tool also helps reset Autorun settings, thereby saving your computer from Autorun malware. The reset action disables autorun attributes for removable drives. Though the threat is not removed completely, there definitely is protection from computer infection that could be caused by an infected storage tool.

  • Pros

    • Simple and easy interface
    • Can also be run from a portable hard drive
  • Cons

    • Some of your other software may require reinstallation
    • Bugs could be an issue
