Open an ISO image as a virtual drive using WinCDEmu

January 8, 2009 in Software | Permalink

Media suites encourage us to build and burn our own DVD using our favourite photos and videos and then give that DVD to our friends and family. Same in business. No reason why you couldn't design a presentation, burn to disc and give that disc to colleague. Problem is, if you need to distribute this CD/DVD across the Internet, there are few easy ways of making the auto-running disc available to other people. One solution is an ISO image; snag is that users need to be able to work with your ISO archive.

WinCDEmu 2.0 is a tool which users can use to mount an ISO (or other disc archive) as a virtual drive. For example, this would be allocated a drive letter and you could access the contents as if it was a regular drive. When you're finished, you simply eject the drive as if it was a removable drive connected to your PC.
