Windows stopped including a codec to play DVDs a couple versions ago. what’s a good way of still playing them on Windows 10 or 11?

i own DVDs but I’m looking for software options that work. VLC doesn’t unless i get that missing codec, etc

edit: everyone is stopping that VLC can do it with no extra requirements. it didn’t work before but I’ll try again

    VLC is all you need for DVDs. You just need to download this file, unzip it, and put the DLL file into the same directory where VLC is installed.

    This file will enable VLC to access the DVD in such a way to bypass the protection methods.
