With the wide spread of USB portable and flash drives, the CDs, DVDs are getting pretty old. For some people with quite slow internet connection, they were the only way to transfer big files. Now that’s getting old, thanks to USB drives, now even operating systems can be installed from a USB flash drive.However, ISO files are still widely used. An ISO file is a CD Image file, you can burn it as an image file and you get an identical copy of the original CD (Bootable and with Autorun). But if you want to view or use the files in an ISO file, you don’t need to burn it. You can instead use one of these Free Tools To Mount ISO Files in Virtual Drives which will create a virtual CD/DVD drive and mount the file in it.
It’s quite fun virtualizing these things, now you have a virtual CD Image (ISO) file and a virtual CD/DVD Drive. Mounting is like inserting a CD/DVD into your CD/DVD drive. The only difference is that both are virtual, you don’t need a physical CD or physical Drive to do so.

If you prefer to wear a crown then it must be similar to the
