When I add files to a rw disk with drag to disk when I ejexct the disk is prepared but it will only play on a computer that has disk write on it.
I used to be able to mark the box in options that allow the disk to be closed and played in another computer.  The box is checked but when I eject it will prepare the disk to play but only in a computer with disk write on it.  What do I do to get this to work again?  Support has not answered the question after 7 days.

Creator 2009 does not have Drag to Disc, what version do you really have.

It may be that the RW disc is going bad.  RW does not mean "like a floppy", it means the ENTIRE disc can be erased and be reused, altho usually not as many times as the manufacturers claim.

If you are using this for long-term archiving, rather than something short-term like transferring files to another computer, with the original files safelyon the originating computer, you would be a lot better off to use R media.
