How do I remove a stuck CD from my laptop’s disk drive?

< 1 min read

Here is a list of things you can do to try and remove a stuck CD from your laptop’s disk drive:


  1. Check for a emergency eject hole on the side of the disk drive
  2. Restart your laptop and try again to remove the disk using the disk drive’s built in safe removal procedure
  3. If the above two steps fail, you can use a thin tool such as a bent paperclip to attempt to manually remove the disc from the disk drive. Be gentle as you do not want to damage any components within the disk drive
