DAEMON Tools

Good for free use but windows 10 open iso files. if you open diffrent format than is.

I'm playing Might and Magic VII, disk 2 must be insert to make game playing the music.
With Virtual CloneDrive and WinCDEmu I can run the game but without music, but DAEMON Tools can.

As a long-time user of Daemon Tools, I was terribly surprised to find the developers have loaded their recent installations with malware and partnered with known Malware distributors such as "mountspace" (Malwarebytes considers them to be a malicious website, as well) in order to bring the end user bloatware of the Conduit variety, such as Opencandy and Sweetpacks.

Daemon Tools is dead. Stay far away if you know what is good for your computer and your sanity.

• Unnecessarily increasing the cpu usage rate. (Disc Soft Bus Service Lite)
• Always reside in the user process.
• Demanding cumbersome procedures and knowledge for simple use.
• It's bundleware.

Verdict: There is no reason to use this rubbish.

Great alternative? Sure, but it's not cheap and also the lite version contain ads

Horrible, simply horrible.
I've wasted a few hours of my life while getting rid of all those pesky malwares that Daemon Tools light comes with.

A while ago, Daemon Tools was the no-brainer choice for Disc emulation, tools like alcohol 120 were too bulky and useless against the ease of use of DT. But DT business model shifted, into a paid wall with ads for free users, and so alternatives grew stronger and better than this now old, full of bloatware software.

I would recommend, as I forgot to mention it, WinCDEmu, Open Source, fast, small, and easy to use.
