I have calibration power issues with my BluRay RW unit and Nero. In past I have fixed this issue deactivating Windows IMAPI service that is a built in feature that allows you to use udf file system with optical discs but seems causing problems with certain hardware\software configurations.
I have Windows 10 creation update but I cannot find this service listed anywhere so I cannot figure how to disable it.
This feature is enabled for sure since all imapi.dll
are in my System32 folder and all built-in udf burning features are active and working when I insert a blank disc.

Disable it with the Group Policy Editor:
- Press the Windows button
- Type:
Edit Group Policy
and press Enter - Navigate to:
Computer Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, File Explorer - Double-click on
Remove CD Burning Features
- Select
Disabled
and click OK - Reboot
Alternatively, you can modify the setting directly from the registry:
Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Value: NoCDBurning (DWORD):
0
(or deleted): Users are able to use Windows Explorer CD burning

: All features in Windows Explorer that allow you to use your CD writer are removed.

Note: The source is for Windows 7 and 8.1, but I confirmed the functionality still works in Windows 10.
