Does anyone have any recommendations for an external DVD player for a laptop running Windows 11 please?

You mean external DVD drive? i assume you wish to read/write DVD/CD's

Anything USB2 should be fine for it

we brought these for work:

When I couldn't find my LG one around the house, I bought this off trademe to read some discs that had something on it that I needed - it works fine.
