If you’re like most people, you probably use Windows 8 to do things like open files and view pictures. But there are also a lot of features that Windows 8 doesn’t have natively, like burning CDs. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Open the Start screen and type “cmd” (without the quotes) into the search bar. This will bring up a list of all the commands that you can use to start or stop programs.
  2. Type “burn” into the command line and press Enter. This will start a program called “Burning CD”.
  3. In the “Burning CD” window, select your media type (CD-R/RW, CD-RW+, DVD+/-R/RW). If you want to burn a bootable disk, select “Yes” when asked if you want to create one.
  4. Click on the “Next” button to continue burning your disc. The burning process will take some time, so be patient! When it’s done, your disc will look something like this: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 116 117 118 119 120 121 122 123 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 132 133 134 135 136 137 138 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 159 160 161
