Do the cd's automatically wipe themselves, cannot believe that is possible, but unless we have had one heck of an electrical storm am unable to think of a reason (other than a windows update).
Anyone else ever had this problem?

Thanks Tim, think somehow the disc must have got re-formatted somehow. Other discs work ok. I have tried Recuva and says cannot access files, so can only assume that somehow I have wiped the disc.

How old is the CD? 20 years ago when I had a very long commute I made a couple of hundred music CD's to play enroute. They started crashing about 8 or 10 years ago and probably at least half of them don't work anymore - They are NOT permanent media. Neither are flash drives. If it's important always make a backup and plan on copying every 3 or 4 years if it is stuff that can't be duplicated.
Just my opinion but it is not a hard thing to do so it's an easy solution.

Think the CD was purchased in about 2014, just seemed weird that I had used it last week with no problems. Not sure if Steiner CD's are able to be copied, would think there was some coding that would stop that happening and have not seen them advertised for sale on any of the big sites (Amazon, Ebay, Etsy).

I down loaded the Steiner disk to my computer. That way I just click on the desktop shortcut to gain access to the pages. I do not use the disk any longer, but still have it as a back up.

Bit the bullet and bought a new CD today. Now to hope it arrives ok, don't normally have any problems with USA purchases.

These pages need to be made available on a flash drive these days. I don't use a desktop and laptops no longer have CD slots

Well worth the money and Steiner deserves some additional funding from time to time.
Note that he has been adding material since you last bought it...some well worth expansion of his data in several areas, and not just the recent material!

Last week I printed off some pages from the cd, put it in the system today to print off a few more, and it says it is a blank cd!, Tried a different computer, same thing. Totally unable to get anything to show.
