Have you ever stored CD images (usually .iso files) on a DVD or hard-drive, just to get rid of the old & slow media? Then you could, of course, mount the image to a virtual drive and you’re done!
Have you ever thought “damn, this ISO could be smaller…” or “this whole bunch of files were better in a single file. Do I have to create an ISO?”
Well, the actual question you’d like to ask is “Can I mount a standard format compressed archive file?” What about zip? Yes, mount zip would be great!
And you know what? It’s as straight-forward as downloading a small piece of software for that.
There’s winMount (commercial), but for free we can get Prismo File Mount: http://www.pismotechnic.com/download/
It supports ISO, ZIP, CISO, CFS, ISZ, DAA… etc. Probably enough for your daily tasks… :)
