11. Extenstion: Convert IMG to ISO File for IMG Mounting
IMG file, with .img file extension, is a format of disk image files which stores all the raw disk information of floppy disks,
hard disks and optical discs. Disk image file has two extentions – .iso and .img, and can be opened with any virtual drive
software. Sometimes .img file can be renamed to .iso file.
As two disk image formats of the disk, IMG and ISO both contain the same disk content with only one track, and follow the
file structure of the optical disc file system, ISO 9660 (CD) or UDF (DVD). Except that ISO is a general format, which is
acceptable to all the DVD disc burning software, while IMG files are commonly compressed so that some of the DVD burner
software cannot read it. That’s why we need to convert IMG to ISO file.

mounting. The below steps would show you how to convert
IMG to ISO with PowerISO:
1. Run PowerISO.

file name.

make use of Leawo DVD Copy to mount IMG file to DVD
