Without wasting time, let’s start explaining how to create and mount an ISO image with Daemon Tools.

How to create and mount an ISO image

The first thing we must do is download and install the Daemon Tools program on our computer, we must also note that we are working with the Windows 10 operating system. If we go to the My Computer menu, we can see the devices and units it has our computer.

If being in the same window of My Computer, in the lower left side we will find the option of catalog images, this option belongs to the Daemon Tools program. This is a folder of images and if we select it we will see that we do not have any images. We leave My Computer and enter the program that we just installed.

Upon entering the program, we are going to mount an image to simulate that we have an optical disc reader, such as a CD, DVD or Blu-Ray. And that there is an optical disk in that reader, because there are currently many programs that require us to have a disk in the unit and we are going to simulate that action with this procedure.

Having understood this, we are going to proceed to mount the image, the next thing we are going to do is being in the Daemon Tools program, we will appreciate that we have several options at the top. And two more on the left side that are Images and Devices, I select images and select the Add option in the top menu.

Next, it will search on your computer where the image that you must have previously saved is located and then you click on Open. The image will appear in the program but you still need to mount it. To do this, we are going to select the image by positioning ourselves with the mouse over the image and then we make a right clip.

When doing this, a dialog box appears with several options and we must choose Mount, making a clip and we will see that it will begin to process the request. And it will already be mounted, to corroborate this, we go to My Computer and we can see that in Devices and drives a BD-ROM drive appeared.

You may also notice, that it shows as if the drive contains a disk and this is the idea to make the program think that you have a disk drive and it is busy. It is so much so, that if we explore the files that the disc contains, we will find audio content in the different folders.

Now, if you want to unmount this drive to mount another image, you simply have to select the image in the program, right-click and select delete. If you go to My Computer you will find that the disk drive is still showing up but no disk. To erase the drive, you go to the program and select Device.

Next, the device appears and you must position yourself on it with the mouse and right-click and then choose Remove this virtual unit. And as you have seen, mounting ISO images using the Daemon Tools program is very simple and easy to do.
