Kalju Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Any way cannot understand why convert DVD to ISO Image? Spoiler An ISO image is an archive file of an optical disc, a type of disk image composed of the data contents from every written sector on an optical disc, including the optical disc file system.[1] ISO image files usually have a file extension of .iso. The name ISO is taken from the ISO 9660 file system used with CD-ROM media, but what is known as an ISO image might also contain a UDF (ISO/IEC 13346) file system (commonly used by DVDs and Blu-ray Discs). ISO images can be created from optical discs by disk imaging software, or from a collection of files by optical disc authoring software, or from a different disk image file by means of conversion. Software distributed on bootable discs is often available for download in ISO image format. And like any other ISO image, it may be written to an optical disc such as CD or DVD.

What I really need is to clone a DVD of the software's Sage 50 Pro that I bought. The idea is to keep safe the original disk and use the clone as a work copy . Please let me know the software that help me accomplished it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recruit Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 You can simply make a new folder in your computer and copy the whole content ( all files and folders ) of the dvd there. Or, if you want, you can make a dvd image and you can mount it with a virtual drive. You can use these tools to do that : Good luck ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried it but when checked the size of the DVD and the size of the copy folder in the PC, they differed. The copy of the PC is smaller. Is this normal?

Try to make an iso with those tools and mount that iso with a virtual drive and see what it will happen further....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator DKT27 Posted September 8, 2016 Administrator Share Posted September 8, 2016 Make sure to check the extension of the file you are making. Some softwares save in a different, compression supporting extension and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
