Extracting ISO files?

~*McoreD*~ · #1 5th Nov 02, 12:31 PM

Hi,

I downloaded an ISO file today. I no need to burn them to a CDR before checking the content inside. Is there a way to access the files inside the ISO file without burning them to a CD?

Please Help....

There are several utils helping you with this, among them winiso is well-known.
I would suggest that you install Daemon-tools. I bet you won't kick it out!

Both winrar and isobuster will work - I prefer isobuster.

Alpine: yes...

About Daemon-tools: For those of you who haven't tried it: Daemon-tools is a virtual CD/DVD-player, it can open iso-files and bin/cue-files, locally and over a network. It mounts theese imagefiles making them act as beeing readable in the same way as you read from a cd in a cd-reader. Thus it is possible to, for example, to install Office from your backup (made from the install-cd) without having to burn it, or having to unpack it into another dir somewhere. This way you also can let it act as a CD-reader for those apps/games (also copy-protected games) that need the CD in the reader.

This tool has server very well and I have found no drawback. Recommended.
