Start WinDVD by inserting the DVD into the drive. The region code is
automatically set and you can view the movie. This is the initial setting.

After the region code has been set, if you insert a DVD with a different region
code, you are prompted to change the region code. You can change the region
code from your initial setting up to four times.

After the region code has been changed from its initial setting four times, it is
fixed and can no longer be changed. Thereafter, you can play DVD content
only from that region.
