    How to Mount an ISO File Using WinCDEmu<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    An ISO image is simply a “virtual copy” of an optical CD\/DVD disc. Lots of software is distributed in the form of ISO images (e.g. you can download Windows 7 Service Pack ISO from Microsoft website). To mount an ISO file means to access its contents as if it was recorded on a physical medium and then inserted in the optical drive. If you downloaded a software in the form of an ISO image and want to install it, mounting it will be faster and easier than recording it on an actual disc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To mount an image you need to install WinCDEmu. Then follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • Open the folder containing the image file.<\/li>
    • Double-click at the image. Alternatively, you can right-click and select “Select drive letter & mount” from the context menu.<\/li>
    • Click at the OK button or press enter. If you don’t want to see this dialog every time you mount an image, set the “Manage drive letters automatically” checkbox.<\/li>
    • A new virtual drive will appear among all other drives in the “computer” folder.<\/li>
    • You can use the virtual drive the same way as you would use a “real” optical disc – browse its contents, open files, start programs.<\/li>
    • Once you are done with the image, right-click on the virtual drive and select “Eject”<\/li>
    • You can alternatively unmount the image by double-clicking at the image file again.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
