Howto read an ISO file or mount a virtual CD drive (for free)
Files with the .iso extension are files ready for use with most burning software in order to create a CD. However, sometimes, you don’t want the whole data inside the CD, just a file, and would like to avoid burning a CD just for that? Here are some solutions.

- 7-Zip, which is free and opensource.
In both cases, you simply open the ISO file and access it through the embeded explorer. You may drag/drop files from the ISO file to your hard-disk.
