Copy the driver (vcdsomething.sys) to your system32\drivers directory (so you need 2000 or xp, not tested on nt 4) and run the program to load the driver and mount an iso. Problem is, you can't actually edit anything.
Uh oh... not more linux/windows bitching.... To the people who feel linux sucks... be quiet and keep using windows to show your loyalty. To the people who love linux, have fun doing something different.
i think steve has taken that stereo-type waaaay too far
It's a blantantly false one to begin with. Like Novell and SuSE are run out of someones basement, and don't we all know by now that when it comes to coding, noone cares who you are, but what you write.
*slash goes and downloads some crappy Linux tool that some 40 year old guy made in his basement*
No. I'd rather use daemon tools or imagedrive for windows.
And yeah, if I had to mount that in linux i won't download anything cuz i already have that tool!
However in case that MS is monitoring the refferrer, it's a good idea not to click on the URL, rather copy&pasting it into address line of browser etc.
From the page itself: Supported Operating System
Windows 7, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Vista, Windows XP
Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7; Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Server 2008 R2
BTW, it's highly probable that it's been discussed elsewhere in the forum, MS Win 8.1 and Win10 directly allows an .iso to be mounted as a drive letter if default app for .iso extension is File Explorer.
@Bry89 you're so right. However in my language we say "konuyu hortlatmak", but I couldn't find its appropriate English equivalent. So before mentioning about my "bumping" I finished and posted my comment, so I forgot to mention bumping. But now I know how to say it, it's gonna be "Sorry for bumping this thread..." for me.
BTW, I never intend to spoil threads. As @Windows 2000 said (thank you for that), I just tried to add somehing useful.
I love WinWorld!
Well, as for the thread's contents... IMHO built-in .iso mounting feature for MS Windows is a nice thing to have, nothing more.
Cheers!

Have you got a site for more information?

Regardless of who says it, it's just...(fail)

@cafyon, you just bumped a thread last posted almost 15 years ago. Just thought I'd say it.
Well, going in line with this discussion, I've used MagicISO to edit ISOs when needed (or to convert certain formats into .iso, such as .img files).
@Bry89 He added something useful to the post, so I believe it is allowed.

There wasn't built in support for mounting ISOs back when this thread was new.
