TSSTcorp CDDVDW SU-208GB not working after Fall Creators Update installed

When the Windows 10 Fall Creators update tried to install it corrupted my boot drive so I had to download the image from Microsoft and do a clean install on my MSI laptop. After the clean install of Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, everything seems to be working fine except for my optical disc drive. It is a TSSTcorp CDDVDW SU-208GB with firmware level TM01 installed. It was working fine previously. The device shows up in Device Manager and everything says the device is working normally, has the latest correct driver, etc. When I put a disc in the drive, it will try starting up and then fall silent. I never see the optical disc drive on my windows desktop or in file manager. Any thoughts about what I can do to get this resolved?

    Dear auggy,

    Any DVD that I try gets the same results. I must have at least a hundred or so. Most are copy protected but a few are not. None of them will mount. File explorer sits there with a green bar moving across the top and eventually times out.

    I am not claiming to know all of the whys and wherefores, just reporting what I observe...

    I don't see an issue removing the key entirely.

    BTW, what are the DVDs that are having the issue?

    Dear auggy,

    I created a System Restore Point, made the change and restarted.

    I see no change in the behavior.

    I am very sure that the elbycdio.sys file is removed from the system.

    Is there any issue with just removing the key entirely?

    Thanks,

    Mike

    At that registry key, in the right window, try changing the value data of Startto 4 - double-click Start and change the Value data to 4 > OK

    That should stop the elbycdio.sys from loading.

    Create a System Restore Point beforehand and restart the computer afterwards.

    Dear auggy,

    Yes, that key is present. Should I delete it?
