Windows 7 Troubleshooting ISO File Mounting Issues on Windows 7: Seeking Alternative Solutions

[Santasan]

What tool can i use to mount iso-files under win7?
i tried out DaemonTools and Alcohol120% as well as VirtualCloneDrive, but none of them worked
any suggestions

Personally, PowerISO. it's free and you can just leave it running without being a hog

thanks, works fine!!
another question: Virtual CloneDrive somehow didnt deinstall cleanly and left 4 virtal drives that are still shown in the explorer, but have no function any more. Is there a way to delete them?

i googled "delete virtual drives" and came up with this in about 45 seconds





How do i remove the virtual drives

Q:- I uninstalled Alcohol but the virtual drives remain, how do i remove them?

A:- Go to control panels/system/hardware/device manager, find under "SCSI and Link Removed due to 404 Error" the Alcohol* SCSI controller, and remove it.

All Alcohol drives will disappear. Normally this happens automatically when you uninstall alcohol, unless at the uninstallation time you still had some image mounted.

You will Also need to remove Plug and Play Bios Extension from Link Removed due to 404 Error Devices. and if needed the Virtual Drive Drivers from the Windows/System32/Drivers Folder.

* Name of the Virtual Drive Driver varies from version to Version
