On Win11 the DVDRW drive shows up in file explorer but on MX it does not show on devices...

Silly question: what disc did you put in the DVD-RW drive?

[JesusLinux]

The DVDR drive shows up in thunar under computer:/// but not on the "Devices" side pane, Does not show on the box to tick,
How do I put DVDR drive to show on devices side pane?

Silly question: what disc did you put in the DVD-RW drive?

There no disc inserted at the moment.
I tested the DVDR on Win11 and audio cds and dvds was working.
Then I had to go to other place to work I have the laptop with me but no cds or dvds here to test.

How do I put DVDR drive to show on devices side pane?

If you right-click on the word Devices in the panel on the side of Thunar, you should be able to see a menu of checkboxes that determine what gets displayed there.

Yes, on that menu on the devices checkbox list only File System and the 155GB partition with Win11 drive shows up...no DVDR entry to checkbox,
On computer:/// the DVDR drive shows up.

Also I tried this on this page and nothing...

Yes, it's time to investigate Thunar > Preferences > Advanced > Volume Management. This is what you you've linked, but you haven't specified what you actually tried.

I ticked the checkboxes on that docs.xfce as described...
