ISO file is an exact copy of compact disc. It allows you backup copies of discs and store them digitally. You can burn the ISO file to a disc, thus to make an exact copy of original disc. You can also mount the ISO file to a virtual drive, and access files within ISO file from the virtual drive. In such way, you needn't burn a real disc. Create ISO file or BIN file from hard disk files or CD / DVD / BD discs. Edit ISO image file directly. Mount ISO file with internal virtual drive. PowerISO can mount all popular disc image files to built-in virtual drive. More Detail; Convert image files between ISO / BIN and other formats.

Other than Virtual Clone Drive, Magic Disc is another free software that allows you to mount your image files in Windows. The difference is, MagicDisc allows you to create image file (ISO, BIN, IMG etc) as well. MagicDisc is a free software designed for creating and managing virtual CD drives and CD/DVD discs. I thought Windows 8/8.1 and 10 had native support for mounting iso's. Maybe I dreamt it up. I thought so too but it seems natively they can open iso files but not mount them.

MagicISO (also referred to as MagicISO Maker) is a CD/DVD image shareware utility that can extract, edit, create, and burn disc image files. It offers the possibility of converting between ISO and CUE/BIN and their proprietary Universal Image Format disc image format.
In addition to being able to edit the contents of the disc images without decompressing, it can make a disc image from an existing CD/DVD-ROM. Also, it can make bootable image files (file extension .bif). MagicISO can mount disc images with the addition of MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD Manager.
The trial version cannot handle disc images larger than 300 MB. MagicISO is currently produced by MagicISO, Inc.
Universal Image Format[edit]
Universal Image Format or UIF is a proprietary disc image format for CDs and DVDs designed for MagicISO. Compared to the widespread simpler image formats like .iso and .bin, UIF adds compression, password-protected encryption, MD5 checksums and multi-session images.[4][5]
Problems with MagicISO[edit]
MagicISO supports CIF files created by Easy CD Creator, but only data CDs (ISO 9660 compatibles), not audio CDs. MagicISO also installs a context menu through the file C:MagicISOmisosh64.dll (if installed to default directories) which is not removed with the software when uninstalled, rather, it remains on your system and is not easily removed.

MagicDisc[edit]
MagicDisc, sometimes known as MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD Manager is a freeware virtual drive counterpart to MagicISO. It is a separate download needed to mount discs virtually. MagicDisc can also decompress UIF images to ISO format.[6]
Unlike MagicISO, MagicDisc does not have support for .daa files that were produced by PowerISO.
