Re: CD-RW discs

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

CDRW discs in Windows do not behave like 'big floppy' discs, unless you have
third party packet writing software such as InCD - but such systems are
notoriously unreliable. Never ever work directly from removable media.
Always copy back to the hard drive and uncheck the read-only property before
working on the file.
