I like Poweriso, magiciso, vcd etc on my workstations but generally avoid installing iso tools on prod servers to keep them pristine and end up extracting from the workstation to the server. MS has a Mount-DiskImage cmdlet which sounds nice but only on win8\12

What is your favorite, safe, and least expensive, software for mounting an .iso file on this OS? Here are a few I’ve found, but have never used any: MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD-ROM (MagicDisc) http://www.magiciso.com/tutorials/miso-magicdisc-overview.htm (freeware) PowerISO http://www.poweriso.com/index.htm ($29.95) Virtual CloneDrive http://www.slysoft.com/en/virtual-clonedrive.html (freeware) I currently can’t burn the .iso to media as we don’t have a dual-layer burner available (and the disc would require one due to size). Going to have to look into that as well now.
