I recently moved from a broken down desktop to a newer laptop that lacks an optical drive.
I bought a USB to SATA controller to allow my old desktop BD-ROM to be used on my laptop.
The OS (Win10) sees the drive and I can parse files on it, however MakeMKV seems unable to address the drive.
The controller/Drive in Device Manager shows as ASMedia ASM105x USB Device.
Is the fact that this isn't showing up as the old BD-ROM my issue?
If so, anyone know if a way for me to fudge it so it shows up in MakeMKV?

Re: USB Controller issue
Most likely you are experiencing the "enhanced ransomware protection" of Windows 10, which defaults to denying access to removable drives by non-Microsoft-approved programs. You can usually find the way around it by searching for "windows 10 ransomware exception".

Sorry for the really late reply...
It ended up that I needed to run the app in admin mode because of UAC.
