Windows 10 version 1709 upgrade setup stops on uncompatible DVD/BD driver

Windows 10 version 1709 setup presents me with such communique:

"What needs your attention
The following things need your attention to continue the instalation and
keep your Windows settings, personal files and apps,

DVD-RAM Driver Software/BD Driver Software
Uninstall this app now because it isn't compatible with Windows 10.
Manually uninstall"

The last paragraph repeats six times!
Setup cannot continue...
My question is: how to find and how to remove this driver?

Kind regards, Tadeusz

This may help:

If it isn't listed in the Add/Remove Programs applet in Control Panel,
look in services (services.msc) to see there is something named similar.
If not, do a search in the registry on "DVD-RAM Driver" and "BD Driver".
If there are entries, see if they identify the path to the driver.

Did you buy the DVD/CD drive separately of your computer? If so, and if
NOT a white box unit, it came with bundled software. Find the disc for
installing that software as it might indicate what you need to
uninstall. Optical drives that support DVD-RAM often require their own
software to utilize that format (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD-RAM).
While Windows supports UDF which can be used with DVD-RAM discs, I
recall that it didn't support UDF as implemented on DVD-RAM discs so a
driver was needed for that hardware media. As I recall, the idea was to
make the DVD-RAM disc look like and behave like a huge floppy drive
instead having to go through the burn cycle of other optical formats.

The wikipedia article mentions that Windows XP, and later, are supposed
to support the UDF spec needed for supporting DVD-RAM discs. I recall
having to install 3rd party software. Wikipedia mentions inCD or DLA so
you might look for those in Add/Remove Programs. InCD was bundled with
Nero's software. DLA (originally by Veritas and died when acquired by
Sonic) was replaced with something else in Roxio's bundleware. So which
UDF file driver you got depended on which disc burning software you
installed. Later versions of Windows (probably after XP) supported a
larger range of UDF specs so these drivers became superfluous.

If you bought a pre-built computer that included the disc drive, could
be a driver package from the OEM of the pre-built PC. Go to their site
to see if they offer an update to their software so it is Windows 10
compatible. If they don't list Windows 10 as supported then you should
consider having migrated to Windows 10 when hardware drivers were not
available for that OS.

One of the reasons for doing a fresh install of an OS is to eliminate
dragging along pollution and incompatibilities from the old OS and its
apps that effect problems in the new OS. I suspect you did an upgrade
from Windows 7/8 to Windows 10 and you had upgraded to Windows 7/8 from
Windows XP dragging along software that eventually became obsolete or
unsupported.
