I downloaded the media creation tool for 20H2 Windows 10 version. Requested 64 bit version ONLY.
ISO file is over 4.7GB, does not fit on DVD. What should I do? I DO NOT want to mess with dual layer,
blue ray, or flash drives. Never had this problem before, seems like a glitch in the tool perhaps,
it does not compress the file properly?

This one works! Just burned it to DVD. So, this should resolve all the media format woes posted here? :)

Be sure to choose the second option to create media installation, unless you want to update directly.
The biggest thing about this is not to use a CD/DVD but to use a USB stick.
It has been explained that this is not an option. Why do you insist?

We are users here and not Microsoft employees, so it is not our website.
There are instructions on the website about the ISO may be larger than a single layer DVD.
If you want to give feedback about the site select the Give feedback option on the website.
try downloading the previous Win 10 iso, that fits on a dvd. I think it is version1099.
There is one thing you can try.
Download the ISO, open it in File Explorer and click on Setup and follow the instructions.
Very smart solution. The only problem is that Explorer is a part of Windows, which you are trying to install...
How are you going to open it in Explorer without Windows?
I have nothing against DVD-DL technology, however a change in system requirements(lack of plain DVD-ROM support) should be announced and users of the Media Creation Tool should be informed.
