My DVD's Stopped Playing

If anyone has a Windows operating system your DVD player probably stopped playing DVD's as well as CD's and other media
Why?

With the "terrorist attack" that Microsoft Media sent to everyone's computer, "Hijacking" them and forcing a Windows 8 then Windows 10 download, many errors have occurred.

The latest error is that your DVD player is not able to read anything.

Why?

After much research, checking blogs of other folks, who seem to have the answer...They DIDN'T.

I figured it out just now.

Windows in now charging $14.99 for Windows Media players and DVD player.  SO...There is your answer. They wiped the drivers off of your computer and now you have to pay for their same program that was FREE before.

ALSO, if you attempt to refresh, repair, or restart your computer from the last save point... you will find that the last Windows update your computer did, It ERASED ALL INFORMATION. Therefore the last date you can choose to got back to to refresh your computer to is the one where your computer was originally updated to Windows 10.

Like most of you I am seriously ticked off that they can do this to MY computer.  However, after I cooled off and thought it through, it was their software and product to begin with and I was using it for free. If they want to charge me now that is their prerogative.  However, the decent thing to do would have let the users know that:
1. an update was coming
2. the update is out of their control
3. they would have to find a new dvd cd player

Instead they did not prepare users, and offer NO help on  their Microsoft site.

I hope this has answered someones questions out there who may have been as frantic as I was.
