Empty disk gives me a 'disk not empty' error

[Shell]

It is clearly empty, yet it appears to have something taking up space, so i can't burn stuff to it.

Does fragmentation exist on disks like hard drives?

[Shell]

im not seeing any fragmentation option.

i see format, though

I'd give that a try. it's not like it can hurt anything

Is your window title color really very dark grey on black...? I had to tilt my monitor to read that stuff.

[Shell]

I can't make the window titles white. I just ignore the titles.

I formatted. Twice. It's still appearing to take up invisible space.

[Shell]

actually, it's taking up 0.01 more gb than last time. splendid.

im not sure if this changes anything but earlier i told it to make the disc act like a flash drive

the only reason im using a damn dvd in the first place is because i couldnt find a flash drive. i wanted to be able to edit files as if it was a dvd-rw rather than dvd-r.

you can buy a flash drive for next to nothing now a days ..

Some DVD's come forgeted up like this. It's just a faulty one more than likely

[LeetZero]

Is it a DVD-R or a DVD-RW?
If it's a R, as soon as you do /anything/ on it regarding it's data, you are forgeted. Especially if it actually takes space right now.

It's a RW.. well at least the first photo says that

It was late at night. I'm big on procrastination.

It does that when you format the disk
