Title: Question about Creating Bootable DVD
Post by: pinkzzu on May 21, 2019, 07:46:44 PM

Download Windows 10 ISO from Microsoft website and burned it using ImgBurn. However, the installation won't completed as it says Windows can't install required files.

Imgburn has the option to verify a DVD you have burnt against the iso file on the computer. If you run verify and it checks  out, then either the file you downloaded is no good or the drive in the other computer isn't reading correctly.
Windows 10 has a tool to make recovery boot media on either dvd or flash drive. Important you make the recovery media on the same version 32 bit or 64 bit Windows.

Here is a link showing how to make recovery media   https://www.pcworld.com/article/3140449/everything-you-need-to-know-about-windows-10-recovery-drives.html

If you have a working  Windows 10 computer then make a recovery disk now before you need it. It is also a very good repair tool when your Windows 7,8,8.1 computer is not booting.

Windows iSO is ok,why not burn it to DVD by using another burners?Because ImgBurn failed once, do it another ways.

I've always used Rufus to create bootable Windows USB disks, always worked for me -

If you need to create a DVD, you can use the official Media Creation Tool -

Hope this helps.

Yeah,Rufus is able to burn Windows iso to DVD,that was one of the earlier Windows 10 builds at the time. And it didn't have any file system encryption enabled anywhere.
I've done it on my computer before (That was one of the earlier Windows 7 builds at the time,not Windows 10).For Windows 10 to make a bootable DVD,you can try them (Only bootable DVD creation is supported ):
