How to extract ISO files from a disc
Extracting iso files from CDs and keeping them safe could be useful. Suppose you are considering backing up your Windows installation disc. Of course you could backup your data using Windows Backup and restore feature. But it might be beneficial to make a personal copy of the Windows installation DVD so that you can use it in case you lose your original disc.
To backup your DVD you cannot simply copy and paste the data inside it. You have to create an ISO image of the disc so that it copies all the data i.e. files, folders and properties of disc.
To extract an ISO file from any CD or DVD you can use a free and very small utility (14 KB size) known as LC ISO Creator. Download the zip file and extract it anywhere on your computer. Now open LCISOCreator.exe by double clicking on it (no need to install this program).
Select the disc for which you want to create the ISO image from the drop down menu, and click on “Create ISO” button. Select the location on your computer where you want to save the image and click save. It will take some time to convert your disc to image, depending on the size of disc.
How to burn ISO image to disc
Now comes burning an iso image to a CD or DVD. There are a number of image burning tools available for that purpose. We will use a popular one – Imgburn.

After confirmation, Imgburn will start burning the ISO image file to disc. You can see the status on the window.
After completion, it will eject the disc tray. Insert the disc again and it will start verifying the data on disc. It will take some time depending upon size of CD/DVD to verify the data.
After completion a small pop up window will appear with a sound alert confirming it.
How to mount an ISO image
Mounting an iso image simply means creating a virtual CD/DVD ROM drive that Windows can access just like a physical CD/DVD drive. When required, you could use that drive like you would use the disc, without requiring the actual disc.
There is a free tool known as Daemon tools Lite which does this task pretty effectively.
Download and install this tool on your computer. Open it by double clicking on the icon.
