CD drive won't eject. My dell laptop doesn't have eject button. I tried to run the full system check in F12 setup options but the HARDWARE stayed only for 10% completion I waited for 1 tob2 hours for it to be completed but it just stayed as is. Please help me.
Even if optical drives don't have an actual Eject button, they typically have a manual eject pinhole. If you unbend a paper clip, you should be able to press that into the pinhole to activate the manual eject. Afterward you can just remove the disc and close the tray, and the optical drive will continue working normally.
Type Device Manager onto the search box then look to see if DVD/ CD- Rom drives listed. If there's one, expand, right click driver and then update it. If there no DVD/ CD driver, select 'Action' at the device manager taskbar, and then click on 'Scan For Hardware Changes', hopefully DVD / CD drive appear. Please click on link below for additional DVD / CD troubleshooting.
Your CD or DVD drive is not recognized by Windows or other programs

Welcome to the Dell Community @Jhors
If there is not an "Eject" button then it is most likely a dust cove plate.
Go to "This PC"
There if you have a DVD/CD it should be listed???
If one is listed right click on it then click on "Eject"
Best regards,
