XP Burning Software

[Two-Tone 85]

Hi,

I have the standard XP CD Burning software on my computer.

Why am I not allowed to delete individual files or even alter the names of my files after I have burned them onto the CD?

Very Odd...it's as though the 'puter has claimed sole ownership of MY Files...

Thanks for any feedback..

Hello

Once you burn a file to a cdrome you can not change or
alter it, you have to copy the file toyour local c drive and
their you may alter the file, once the file is copied to your
cdrom it's right-protected.

I guess I should phrase my question a bit better.

Why doesn't my CD-RW act as regular floppy? Is there some way to achieve this because I find it hard to believe that I am limited to having to erase a whole doggone CD just to rid my self of one or two unwanted files?

Can a CD-RW be formatted?? or something similar to acheive the same usage as I would get from a floppy..meaning I can erase what I want and change what I want right on the CD?

I am new the CD burning-thing so I could very well not know what the heck I'm talkin about and feel free to tell me so :)

You need to use the packet writing software which came with your burner for
best results.

You need to buy some burning software like "nero" or "verbatim"
