    Replacement for Vista's Windows DVD Maker program


    Coming from Windows Vista to Windows 10. Have used both the Windows Movie Maker and Windows DVD Maker on Vista. I see there is a compatible version of Windows Movie Maker available for W10 and I have installed it. However, I'll be darned if I can find a standalone download for Windows DVD Maker (which was baked into the Vista OS) anywhere. Or perhaps, someone can suggest another suitable program? Any help is appreciated.
