AnyToISO

AnyToISO is a tool that allows you to easily convert many different kinds of disc images to ISO files. So, what are disc images and ISO files? Disc images (ISO is a disc image format) are similar in structure to an archive.

Understanding Disc Images and ISO Files

They are found on CDs and DVDs and contain the file and folder structure. One can back up the contents of an entire hard drive in a single ISO file.

The program helps you transform images from other formats to the ISO format, supported by most DVD and CD-burning tools on the web. It can also mount any of these disc images to a virtual disc drive to install the software or games from the image onto your hard drive. Let’s see what this tool can do for you.

Versatile Conversion and Extraction Features

The program can convert files from various formats (ISZ, BIN, DAA, RAR, ZIP, NRG, MDF, 7Z, TAR.GZ, UIF, DMG, etc.) into ISO format quickly and without any errors. It can also extract the contents of these images into a folder on your hard drive. You can create new ISO images from the contents of DVDs and CDs.

The software supports BIN and CUE to rip movie DVDs with little effort. Remember that copying data from discs you own is not illegal as long as you don’t share the ISO file.

Enhanced Functionality and Integration

The program can work with Blu-ray discs as well. It can rip their contents and create ISO images. Also, you can select folders and files and create ISO files from them. The program is integrated into Windows Explorer and Apple Finder, so it appears in the context menu when you right-click a disc image file.

The Lite version is free, but you also get command-line support if you are tech-savvy. It can mount images to virtual machines created by VMware or Parallels, which is great if you need to deploy several virtual machines quickly.
