Only one DVD is required if you want to create a Windows 10 Bootable DVD from the ISO file. If you want to write the ISO file as it is to the disk, the size may vary depending upon the version of Windows 10 you want to write. You can either use the standard 4.7 GB DVD or a dual layered DVD.
Another common query is “Will windows 10 iso fit on dvd?”.

You should be asking “Why is my Windows 10 ISO file too large for DVD?”
We discovered the ISO file that I downloaded from Microsoft, via the Media Creation Tool, is too large for a standard DVD. That’s because it contains several versions of Windows 10.

Can I Burn a Windows 10 ISO without a thumb drive?
The DVD’s work just like their names. One has dual layers, and the other is double-sided. To burn a Windows 10 ISO, it does not matter which you get.
