i read through the previous posts and it sounded like this could have been fixed in release 4.1.9 but i still get it. mine is lightly different as it doesn't have the part about administrative privileges i've seen with others posts. on startup i get the following in the log file:
Debug log started at Wed Jan 13 02:41:51 2010 , written by MakeMKV v1.4.11 beta win(x64-release)
001014:000000:0000 MakeMKV v1.4.11 beta win(x64-release) started
001013:000000:0000 Debug logging enabled, log will be saved as C:\Users\Server/MakeMKV_log.txt
005042:000000:0000 The program can't find any usable optical drives.
i'm using win7 default drivers
just wondering if a fix was near
thanks

you need to run the program as administrator, are you?
Re: Cant find drive still an issue in 1.4.11

if you have UAC enabled, which is default setting, you must right click the makemkv icon and select "run as administrator"
Re: Cant find drive still an issue in 1.4.11
problem solved. thanks so much for your help. i didn't realize i had to run as administrator if i was already logged in as administrator.
thanks again, and as i've said before, great little program.
