burf Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I'm unclear on how to add/delete files, from a DVD+RW disc. I burned some files onto a disc. When I tried to add, or delete a file, I couldn't. Am I right to assume, that in order to add/delete files, I must uncheck *finalize* in the write settings? Or is there something else I'm missing? Also, any disadvantages to not finalizing, other than the chance of overwriting? And, is there any chance of overwriting a file, if I know there's room on the disc? I have some important data, I just want to be clear, so I don't inadvertently delete it, while adding a file. Thanks for any help!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I believe the functionality you're talking about is only possible with packet writing software or on formatted DVD-RAM. ImgBurn doesn't let you delete anything from a disc. Once you've burnt something, it's burnt forever and the disc is closed/finalised. You cannot turn off finalising, the option in the settings is for something else to do with finalising. I would actually advise you to NOT use DVD+RW as if it's a big floppy disc, use a memory stick or DVD-RAM disc instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burf Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 Thanks for replying! I rarely use these discs for anything other than just storage. But wanted to add something to it, and wasn't sure of how it works. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
