How to install programs from a disc

If you would like to install a program from a disc, use the following steps:

  1. Insert the disc into your PC or external CD-DVD drive, and then follow the instructions on your screen. You might be asked for an admin password.

  2. If install doesn't start automatically, check your AutoPlay settings.

    1. Select Start WindowsLogo > Settings SettingsApp  > Bluetooth & devices > AutoPlay. 
    2. Make sure AutoPlay is turned On. You can also choose AutoPlay defaults for removable drives and memory cards.

Alternatively, if installation doesn't start automatically, browse the disc to find the program setup file, usually called Setup.exe or Install.exe. Open the file to start installation.
