As you already noticed: Compression is not going to work.
You can compress the ISO file however you want when it sits on your harddisk, but the data is always written UNCOMPRESSED to the DVD. The DVD format doesn't support compression on the DVD in this way.

Modifying a pre-build ISO to take out some updates is possible but it is an arcane art.
Extremely complicated and you will need to have a very good understanding of how slipstreaming works.

Rolling your own ISO starting from a base Windows ISO and adding only the desired patches (and possibly some drivers) is MUCH easier and you can control the size of the resulting ISO with a lot less hassle.

Obviously you can burn to a dual-layer DVD. This will give you an effective capacity of 8.5 GB.

But:
Have you considered to make a bootable USB stick instead ? It is a lot faster to install Windows from USB.
A 8 GB USB stick costs about the same money as a couple of dual-layer DVDs and the USB can be re-used for something else after use.
(Also bear in mind that DVD drives are not really standard anymore in new computers. But they all have USB ports and can boot from a USB device.)

You can download ISO without updates from MSDN website where the size will be equal to 2GB of size and after installation of the OS you can install the upgrades.

If you buy a dual layer DVD, they are about twice as large and should be writeable by a regular DVD burner. Would that be big enough?

Windows 10 Iso Download Less Than 4 Gb 1


Hello everyone. I just registered.
I have Windows 10 Home Single Language version 1703. I tried to download the 1709 ISO for my version from the MS site:
Download Windows 10 Disc Image (ISO File)
First it asks to select the version, in which the only option is Windows 10. Then it asks to choose the Product Language, for which I chose English. Then it directly gives the links for 32-bit or 64-bit. Nowhere does it give a choice for Single Language. So is there any other place from where I should download the SL version, or should I just download the one given on the above site, and it will automatically detect during installation that I have a Home Single Language version and install that? I don't want to waste a few GBs downloading the wrong version.
Thanks all.
