windows server 2008 r2 - File access denied *after* burning to disc

    After using the built-in CD burner on WIN2k8 R2 to burn files downloaded by a regular user, all of the burned files seem to have changed the ownership to Administrator, since the regular user gets the "Access Denied" when tries to view them (but is allowed to make a copy).

    Cannot reproduce since I don't have spare CDs anymore, but I think it only happened after the last backup session.

    I can change the permissions back, but I would like to know how to stop this from happening.

    Burning a Data CD in Windows 7 not recognizing discs
  • Andrew Coleson

    I was able to get ISO burning working just fine in Windows 7, but I'm having trouble with burning regular files (using the built-in Explorer burning functionality). In Vista, I think I selected the files I wanted to burn and just clicked Burn in the toolbar.

    However, when I click Burn in Windows 7, it ejects my tray with a "please insert a writeable DVD" message even though I have a blank CDR in there already. Do I need to format it firsT? Vista would detect and offer to format it as part of the process. I don't want a rewritable or open filesystem disc, I'm just trying to burn some .mp3s to CD to play in my car.

    I know its not a true solution as it bypasses the problem and isn't native, but have your tried imgburn? I've run into similar hiccups with Windows 7's burning app.

    (stupid question but have you tried closing the tray and finding something akin to continue? if the os assumes the drive is empty.)

    Yes, it takes some finagling to get the burner to work, under Windows 7, in the native burning app. Try this sequence:

    1. insert cd
    2. wait for Windows 7 to glance at it decide that it's a blank disk
    3. a popup window with three options will appear:
      • use as a live (editable content)
      • 'mastered' (found in desc of second option)
      • cancel (ignore this window)
    4. select mastered.
    5. goto your files.. right click send to > Burner.
    6. goto drive (edit, arange or otherwise)
    7. select burn to disc
    8. edit title
    9. (have an sudden missed beat as you realize that the app stole back your focus while your were typing and have no idea what the next window is: kinda big, blue header, portrait shape. GRUMBLE)

    10. tray ejects

      it works ... not polished or gold plated imho, but... usable.
