>>"I think I will undust my old Windows XP install disk, to create a VirtualBox VM ..."

Works. Don't forget to add the registry hack to get POS updates.

Finally DVD Shrink ceased to work under the latest Windows 10 patch set.

I still used DVD Shrink because of its reautor feature.

I used it for the movies I bought for the kids.
The boys require this functionality, insert the disk and the movie should start playing automatically...
... and kids movie studios insist on placing tons of crapware before the movie

I think I will undust my old Windows XP install disk, to create a VirtualBox VM and keep using this great app in a virtualized environment

Just wanted to thank the author (wish we had news from him) for this amazing DVD application that stood the test of time. Well done.

Totally amazed right now. DVD Shrink 3.2 will rip all New Releases of Disney DVDs. I just ripped The Lion King DVD that comes with the Diamond Edition.
