Hi,
I'm unable to select a folder on Windows XP. I can't get access to my video files on my pc.
Regards,
Jan

As a workaround, in the file name field, type in or copy/paste the full directory path and file (probably discatt.dat for a disc backup IIRC) that you want to open.

You shouldn't be using Windows XP in 2018...
It hasn't been updated for years and is no longer supported by a lot of software now, do yourself a favour and buy a new PC with Windows 10 pre-installed...

I still use Windows XP Pro on my ripping machine and also for legacy software that I need to run. Windows XP is solid!

Never touch a running system. You're an M$ employee?
Did you check the requirements for MakeMKV? It should work on XP.
