I don't burn CDs very often so please bear with me.
I have a CD-RW drive in my computer, so I bought some CD-RW discs. I copied
some folders to a disc, then a while later copied some more folders to the
disc, but now I can't copy any more files/folders to the disc. The system
says there's no free space left on the disk, but there's less than 100 MB of
stuff on it.
I understand that for RW discs there's something called finalizing, but I
don't recall ever finalizing my disc. Under what conditions does Windows
finalize a CD-RW?
I've checked numerous Microsoft on-line articles on CDs but nothing mentions
finalizing.
I used some ISO writing software to image a bunch of other RW discs, and now
I find I can't rewrite them either.
It's kinda pricy buying RW discs that can only be written to once.
Can someone please explain when and why you can't write to RW discs any
more, or point me to an article.
