• Windows Media Player does not include the CD Label/Insert manufacturer as it did before as I have re-installed Windows.

  Hi TerryodO'Donnell.

  The manufacturer of your computer would have installed extra software on your computer to create CD labels.

  So, you can use LightScribe system software to create CD labels.
