I tried the trial version first which worked fine in "cd copy" mode as opposed to option the software lists primarily. I couldn't find any software that gave much more promise. I ordered this product though I had read many very negative reviews about it being a rip off. Only because I very much wanted software to copy my collection of tv clips on one dvd. Overall I think Nero is pretty good and not a bad price for a licensed blueray player. The control center sets itself to autolaunch at boot (like Adobe ARM and other pests) which you can kill with autoruns since the updates will be pretty infrequent (like never on this ancient stuff) after the initial install/update. Like most apps the apps on the disc (that was actually cheaper than the download) are old, you can install them but it will require update. Easy to add run as administrator to the shortcut so no issues there. Thought at first that was broken until I enabled the built-in administrator and it launched fine. One thing on the locked down (google Windows 10 STIG - slightly relaxed build of that) build I do the blueray player has to be run as administrator. In actuality I got Nero 12 working fine on Windows 10 Pro without a problem so I really didn't need to upgrade. Going to move to HP 800 G1 Minis with no optical drive so no further need for Nero. I'll never buy any edition of Nero newer than 2015 unless and until they put the blueray player back (despite almost never playing them myself) as I have these for HP 800 G1 USDT machines with blueray players as HTPCs. Who cares about 4K etc I have Vegas and other software for that. As others point out 2016 no longer has a blueray player license. Have Nero 12 Platinum, Nero 2014 Platinum and Nero 2016 Platinum in addition to two license for this. Bought because it works on Windows 10 without issue.
