I'm looking for a free DVD maker program that works on Windows 10, but I can't find any "official" programs from a trusted brand, which makes me paranoid about viruses. Does anybody know of a known safe DVD maker?

    What is a DVD maker? Do you want to burn just data DVDs, or videos? Do you want to author your videos, i.e. combine fragments, edit menus, etc? Please edit your question.

    And asking for malware-free is a bit strange. No one publishes software saying "Look, has malware!". Maybe you mean to ask ""without adware", "without PUPs"?

  • @jan I mean a program that burns video files onto DVDs. I know no programs tell you they contain malware, but for example Windows Movie Maker definitely has no malware because that would destroy their brand. I'm looking for a trusted brand that has nothing to gain by giving you a virus.

Not gratis but Nero has been a very well known and respected brand of DVD Authoring & Burning software. If obtained from the official site you should be good to go and you can also sometimes find magazine cover discs with a copy of a slightly dated version.

    I don't think Nero is free to use.
