Useful info from (c) Microsoft ;-):
An ISO file, also called a disc image, is a single file that’s a copy of an entire data CD or DVD. When you burn a CD or DVD from an ISO file, the new disc has the same folders, files, and properties as the original disc. The most common way to get an ISO file is to download it from a website. For example, you might download and then use an ISO file to update software on your computer. You can burn a disc image file, which often has either an .iso or .img file name extension, to a recordable CD or DVD by using Windows 10 Disc Image Burner. Whether you can burn it to a recordable CD, DVD, or Blu-ray Disc depends on your disc burner and the type of discs it can burn, the size of the disc image file, as well as the device on which you plan to use the disc.
