    Hi Garde, Im an Independent Advisor here to help! The new Windows Media Player app (the modern version) dont include the option to burn CDs because that feature was part of the legacy Windows Media Player which is still available but hidden by default. If you want to burn audio CDs youll have to open older Windows Media Player. To find it press Start and type "Windows Media Player Legacy" and click it when it shows in the list. Once it opens you should see the Burn tab on the top right. From there you can drag songs into burn list and start the process.
