DVD reginal setting

I baught a Sony DVD model DW-U10A-10 for my computer and I let my child used it to look at a DVD that was sent from Japan, not knowing that it would lock me, now my DVD player recorder will only play region 2 DVDs. Can I change it back to region 1? How can I do this?

Welcome to windrivers bruce. In device manager, open the properties for your dvd drive. Go to the DVD region tab. Assuming you haven't changed the region too many times before, it should allow you to change it back to region 1.

Or use a Region Free application like DVD-Region Free, it can let you play any region dvd's all the time.
