If it's just condensation on the inside of the windows, then that is because the air inside the room is warmer than the air outside, which causes the warm air to condense and form water droplets. If you have condensation inside the glass, i.e between the two panes, then the seal of the double glazed unit has gone and the glass needs replacing. This happened to one of my windows, but they were still under guarantee, so the window company fitted new glass, free of charge.

Water condenses on the warm side. With double glazed it shouldn't occur from the glass unless it leaks. It could occur from the frame. On a very cold night put some standing water in the sinks and tub and leave the blinds open. Check the window early to see if there are beads of water.
In an energy audit they have a machine that measures heat loss and where. They can find where the heat loss is the worse which is likely to be where water is condensing. I don't know what they charge for that but some energy companies do it for free to help conserve energy.

it's cold outside and warm inside so some units do suffer from condensation caused by warm air cooling on the glass, if they're new speak to installer but if not you may need to replace them or get a dehumidifier. This can overdry the air though so you get soe dry throat, can't wi em all!

Condensation, you need a dehumidifier if you want it to stop.

THE CONDENSATE GOES TO THE BOTTOM CORNERS.
