    [Bug] Windows 10 Media Creation Tool's iso files for 202H are too large to fit on a DVD


    Help isn't a particularly fitting flair as I'm not really looking for help, just hoping someone from MS will notice the bug.

    Upon downloading the iso via W10MCT the user is supposed to use imgburn.exe /Q to burn it. Unfortunately the MCT is serving files that are ~150MB too large to fit on a standard 4.7 DVDs. Same error happens in third-party DVD writers too. The file requires 4.54 GB on a DVD.

    Looks like someone thought that standard 4.7 DVDs have 4.70GB of space, while it's only 4.38GB in reality.

    [Bug] Windows 10 Media Creation Tool's iso files for 202H are too large to fit on a DVD

    Issue with Windows 10 Media Creation Tool

    The issue is after using the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool the iso image generated is 5.88 GB .

    This iso image of 5.88 GB does not fit a standard 4.7 GB DVD.

    How do I solve this issue?

    Thanks.
