A virtual disk image is a very convenient format due to the fact that it is easy to create and upload to the Internet. Today, most DVD and Blu-ray video games and movies downloaded from the Internet are in this format. All that is needed to start working with such a disk is simply to mount it into a virtual drive.
It is necessary
- - A computer;
- - Alcohol program;
- - Daemon Tools Lite program.
Instructions
Step 1
In order to mount disks, you must have a virtual drive on your computer. Virtual drives are created using special programs. Any emulator allows you to mount CD and DVD disc images. But Alcohol and Daemon Tools hold the leading positions.
Step 2
First, we will consider the process of mounting images using Alcohol. Download one of its newer versions and install it on your computer hard drive. After installation, restart your PC. Run the program.
Step 3
In the "Basic Operations" section, select "Search Images". Then click on the disk partition where the image is saved and click "Search". After completing the operation, right-click on the desired image and select "Add files to Alcohol". If necessary, you can select several files at once.
Step 4
Return to the main menu of the program. There is now a list of the images you added. Click on the desired image with the right mouse button and select "Mount to device". In a few seconds, the image will be mounted.
Step 5
The second program to be covered is called Daemon Tools Lite. Download it and install it on your computer. When installing, be sure to check the "Free license" item. Reboot your computer. Run the application.
Step 6
In the main menu, click on the leftmost disk icon. Specify the path to the image. Click on it with the left mouse button, and then select "Open". Now the disk image has been added to the main menu of the program.
Step 7
Click on the disk image with the right mouse button. Place the cursor on the "Mount" command and select the virtual drive (it will be automatically created by the program). Wait a few seconds. The image will be mounted. The autorun of the disk you mounted will open. All virtual drives created by programs are located in My Computer.
