    Review DAEMON Tools

    DAEMON Tools is a program created to generate virtual drives of CD, DVD, and Blu-ray, so that we can simulate the presence of a physical reader of CD and DVD, to execute disk images, something that in another case would be completely impossible. Thanks to this software, it is possible to do without a CD to burn an image, which will save you money if you work with this type of drive.

    This application allows us to have one, two, three, and even four virtual drives, if we need that amount, to load CD or DVD images of all kinds of formats, among which we can mention, for example, MDX, MDS, MDF, ISO, B5T, B6T, BWT, CCD, CDI, BIN, CUE, APE, NRG, PDI, and ISZ. Thanks to this function, you can emulate copy protection and anti-copy systems such as Safedisc.

    Let's start with installing DAEMON Tools, which offers no significant complications and takes just a few minutes. Once you have the program on your computer, and before you start using it, it will ask you if you will use it for personal or commercial use. We always recommend selecting the free license, which is for personal use, and from then on, the procedure only takes a few seconds. However, you will first have to select which components you want to install and which ones you prefer not to store on your PC.

    Once the software runs, you will see that all the image files, such as the ones mentioned above, will be automatically associated with this new program, which means that it has been successfully recognized. If you double-click or right-click Open on any of them, you will notice that they will run with DAEMON Tools instead of the program you previously had for these tasks.

    This software will then start to generate the virtual image, and when it is finished, it will give you access, with the possibility to perform all kinds of tasks on the content, the same way as if you had placed a CD in your drive. And if you have any inconvenience when mounting the image automatically, as we have shown, you can always do it manually and skip those errors.

    Other features of this application have to do with being able to mount VHD and TrueCrypt files, organize all the images we have created, protect these with a password these images, etc. As you can see, this software not only takes care of its specific task but continues to serve and be useful even when we have finished creating the virtual images and want to have them well organized.

    In summary, What is the best thing about DAEMON Tools? First of all, it is a straightforward program, especially considering that it performs a type of task that computer novices may not know how to carry out. Despite the difficulties in recording an ISO image or any of these formats under normal conditions, this program does not add any complications since it is very intuitive.

    Secondly, and although at this point it may not be so crucial because the cost of CDs is not as high as some time ago, having a tool like this will indeed allow us not only to save money. After all, we will not need these units but also to avoid the hassle of having to look for a CD around the house or go out to buy one while we want to burn an image.

    If we add that the program runs fast and has not caused us any lags, forced shutdowns, or screen freezes, not even during the process of burning an image, then we believe that it is an excellent alternative to this type of software.

    And what does the paid version of DAEMON Tools offer me? Beyond the mentioned features, it provides some details that, although they will not change our experience of use, may be worth it -and the money- for some users. First, the paid version of this program eliminates the advertisements that appear when we install and update it. On the other hand, if we pay for it, we will receive lifetime updates for up to three computers.

    The commercial license of this software adds other benefits, such as the same lifetime updates without limitations on the number of computers and technical support available around the clock for those who have contracted it. As you can see, the acquisition of paid personal and business licenses will remain for those who need them.
