How do I execute "Files Ready to Be Written to Disk"

Anonymous

I burn an audio CD with Nero Burning ROM; it completes and verifies successfully.  But it doesn't play. The listing of the disc's contents includes, "Files ready to be written."  This was an obvious step in xP, but in 8.1 it not only isn't obvious, the execution is nowhere that I've been able to find.  I've seen other forum answers but have been unable to find one that works.

Can someone (MS staff?) help?

Thanks

Bob,

Thank you for the response.

You could try deleting any temporary files that may be left over from CD and DVD burning. Navigate to the hidden folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Burn\Temporary Burn Folder and delete everything.

Now try to burn. Keep us posted.

    I have similar situation. I tried to burn some audio mP3 files, only some files were burnt and were renamed as track1, track2 etc.  and there was a message displaying there are files to be written on disc. Now first of all I can't see appdata when I open any folder in username (there are 3 folders), even if i find that folder and delete everything from temp burn folder, will I have to try to burn another blank video?        thanks

    Found it, but now it said, You do not have sufficient rights to perform this operation.

    Yes, right-clicking was the key, hardly something you would do intuitively.  Thanks, Windows 10 or whoever is responsible.
