You can choose the right click and select Burn to Disc. 









7. Wait for the files to be burn.







8. Click Properties if you want to adjust burning speed, the location of temporary files, and other options. The default options should be fine. If Burn Several Copies is selected, you will be prompted for additional discs.

If the disc wasn’t burned properly
Sometimes the computer doesn’t record the data correctly, and you won’t be able to see the files you put onto the disc when you insert it into a computer.
In this case, try burning the disc again but use a lower burning speed, for example, 12x rather than 48x. Burning at slower speeds is more reliable. You can choose the speed by clicking the Properties button in the CD/DVD Creator window. Then click next.
