Getting "Navigation to the webpage was canceled" screen when starting the program. Unable to get past this screen, thus unable to use the program.

Install SLOWLY!
Post-install there is a 73 MB update, which will install automatically.

After that, you are all good to go!

Don't discount old DVD technology, I still have a stack of unused. Ashampoo programs a great especially when free. My last Ashampoo burning program was 2010. This one installed just fine.

Having a movie or program on DVD is a secure feeling vs somewhere in a "cloud'

Per my earlier comments...installed fine. Per a reply, I went ahead and did the update. That went fine.

I went to burn a BD-R. The interface is nice, though it was very slow to deal with a large BD-R with lots of files. I went over the BD-R capacity, and so I had to eliminate some of the folders that I had dropped on in the initial config of files. Deleting was very slow, because it must be reevaluating all the other files. It got better when I remove the folders that had the most files.

Then I went to burn the BD-R. Very nice interface. Too bad it crashed rather than burned. It did not really tell me why. It sent a bug report to Ashampoo though, so they will see.

It's a much prettier interface than BurnAware, but I think I'll stick with that. Still, a nice offer from Ashampoo for those who don't have a better alternative.

I got the last version that was offered for free here at GAOTD. Have not used it yet, but had plans to do so soon for a project that is coming down to Burn Time. Not sure if I should DL this version or not, but will do so anyways, because there is likely to be some improvements, and I want the best I can get.

Is there much of a difference between this version and the 2020 version?

Great software. Great Customer service. I have all of AS software. All good as is this offer.

License details Lifetime, To the devs that have time limits, this is what a true giveaway is. Thanks Ashampoo!

I already own/purchased Ashampoo burning studio. I have been using it for years. It is a very reliable and affordable burning program.

Thank you, GOTD. I downloaded to update my copy of 2020. After registering (I have several Ashampoo programs I have paid for) it immediately wanted to update to Version 1.22.5, which it did. The updated required no action on my part, other than to OK the initial download. I just ripped one of my CDs as a WAV file and it worked well, as did the last version. Thanks again.

I am still waiting for confirmation for a new account to create, half-hour and more

Was going to say its a great software to have, but have doubts now.
I added some media files to a previous back-up Blu Ray disk without finalizing, like i dont til the disk is nearly full. Never had any problems in the past, but the latest paid version (Burning Studio 21) update Very similar to this one, totally made the disk unreadable. Luckily my recovery software (isoBuster) extracted my files which would have been lost. Whatever they have changed from the older version was no good now,

Installed without problem on Windows 10. Works perfectly. Had no issues ripping and burning to mp3 CDs. Great program. Worth having on your computer.

I gave up on Ashampoo Burning Studio a couple years ago. I’d used it for years, but one day it wouldn’t run. I reinstalled it and punched in my key from my Ashampoo page. A message came up saying the code had been used ‘too many times’ ... I don’t even know what that means. I contacted support and they were no help at all. So, I found another burning program.

It installed fine...but as soon as I ran it and logged in it told me that there was a free update for me. 1.22.5. Will that invalidate the license? Could that be because I already had an account, and for all I remember, may actually have a paid version of AShampoo? (I had used it in the past--I don't remember if I had used a free version or a paid version, but I stopped using it because it didn't save the original file dates when backing up files. I switched at that point to using Burnaware Free, which did preserve file dates, and I've been using that since. But I thought I would give this a try again.

When installing the only option is to say no to allow. It asks me to enter username & password, but there is nowhere to do so, all I can do is say don't allow ?

what version is this?

Not much has change in 11 years with Ashampoo Burning Studio 21. I have Burning Studio 10. After looking at the screen shots for the updated version, the only difference is the menu interface and skin color. Everything else is the same. Ashampoo does say some things are improved. Not sure how you can improve some of them and a option to apply scratch-protection. Not sure, what that is either? I'm not saying anything bad about Ashampoo software, because I've always liked all their apps Curious, would be a better way to say it. Guessing, I'll know more after installing this version. Thanks to GOTD and Ashampoo for the offer!

Install and registered just fine, however after installing it wanted to restart my system, why would win10 need to be restarted? All .dlls should load without a restart. Anyways I didn't restart and open program and was clicking menu's to see what it offered and it is VERY laggy, like a 20+ year old program. uninstalled.

There is still a place for CDs and DVDs.
NOT EVERYTHING is available online, even if you're willing to pay for it. NOT EVERYONE is able to get a reliable internet connection in the UK. Until things drastically improve, CDs and particularly DVDs will be around for a good few more years yet.

Millions of people still use cd's and dvd's. This is a very generous giveaway by any standards!

Plenty of people, myself included still burn & use CD's & DVD's. As stated above, it also burns Blu-Rays! Think that format is still around...

Great software and great customer service
