Even This Happen when you Write on Multi-session Disc, Sometimes NERO Not able to Read those Files which is Already on the disc and you Proceed to write further on Disc, And Yes You can Still Access your those Files which is not Showing, I was Able to Access those files in WIN 98 (Yes its True :D) by Changing The VOLUME LABEL in the Properly of CD Rom, Since Every Session has its Own Volume Label, But in Mdoern Windows like XP,VISTA I can't access those Files.

@Masterminds If you have WIN 98 And That CD then go to Property of CD Rom Where you will Get The option like "Populate Volume Labels" , Choose your Session and you will be able to access those files..

Yes .. its true ... tht even wen u write with Nero in multi-session mode dvd wont b readable for next session .. happens due to conflict in version most probably and just check there is an option in nero burning rom about refreshing an old compilation when ur continuin ur old multi-s disc ... try checkin tht dialog box

Dude i dont know..!
It happened like this.... I burned a cd for about 200 mb of data! Then i realised that i have forgot some files and i again put the same cd back and in nero burning rom(not express) added the files( they were some flash animation) and burned the cd! Afterwards when i checked the disk in other computer then there were files which i burned second time but files which were burned earlier were gone!

I remember the message too, saying that if u write on finalised disc u will loose the previous data!
I dont know guys if i am hugely mistaken

I don't understand why some people have this experience of not being able to access data burned in previous sessions on a multisession disc. That should happen only with Win98 and with some very old CD writer models.

I burn multisession discs all the time and I never have this problem.
