How To Extract ISO File Into Computer Hard Disk Drive

Tuesday, May 31, 2011

I think maybe some of you especially the IT technical may know about ISO file. It is an image file which in fact “the image” of entire CD or DVD. It means all contents in CD or DVD can be represented in a single ISO image and it usually come in a big size.

I believe most people always perform burning process to extract the ISO files and save their contents in CD or DVD. But, I prefer to extract them and save their contents into computer hard disk. It is because I don’t need to spend money to buy a new CD or DVD when every time the version of the ISO file I downloaded from Internet had been updated by manufacturer. 



What You Need

  5. Then, you will see the interface below 

    Capture

  6. Click to clear the right sign sign in both check box –-> click Finish –-> close the web browser appears on your screen.


The Procedures

Now, you have done installing Daemon Tools Lite software. At this second stage, you will begin to extract the ISO file.

  1. Double click the Daemon Tools Lite’s icon in your computer desktop. See below

    Capture

  2. Then, you will see the interface below. Right click on Device 0: [F:] No Media –-> click Mount

    Capture

  3. The Open textbox like below will pop up on your screen.

    Capture

    Note:
    If you don’t see the image above, right click on Device 0: [F:] KB3AIK_EN –-> click Open in File Explorer. See below

    Capture     

  6. You will see the contents of ISO file like below.

    Capture

  7. Create a new folder in your computer desktop –-> copy and paste the contents of ISO file in step 6 into the folder.

hi admin,
this software can swap all ISO image into USB or not??

Hello anonymous....

Logically YES..it can...

it must be based on your ISO image's size and your USB size....

If your ISO image file size can fit into your USB thumb drive...it should not be a problem...

For example...if your ISO image size is 2GB...so you must have the USB thumb drive with above 2GB in size...

wat do u do if the message comes "windows cannot read from the disk.it maybe corrupted."

Hello Anonymous November 1.

based on the message...it is depend on what type of your disk that may get corrupt...

If the disk is USB thumb drive, I suggest you to click here for problem solution and DATA RECOVERY....

If the disk is primary hard disk...I suggest to use Windows PE boot CD or USB....try to perform check disk and repair process on the primary hard disk...Eg: chkdsk c: \r
