Now, when the connection to the Internet is almostin every residential apartment or office, it became easy to download information. This method of transferring files requires a minimum of costs, and with a good connection - and takes a little time. But sooner or later any user comes across an unfamiliar extension that can not be opened in the usual way.
Very often this stumbling block becomesdisk image files. In this format, games and some programs are distributed over the network. They can have the extension isz, mds, nrg or iso. Also, there are a lot of other extensions, but less common on the Internet. In the overwhelming majority of cases, users remain disappointed: they spent time and traffic downloading the game, and eventually got some kind of incomprehensible file with which to do nothing.
Some despair and, figuratively speaking, pushgame in the long box. Others do the right thing, trying to find on the same Internet information about the unusual expansion. As a result, a person receives a large amount of data about the installation and correct operation with the desired file extension. It turns out that just downloading a game from a torrent or file sharing is not enough, it needs to be mounted in the right way. And to implement this action requires a special program-emulator.
What does the isz extension mean?
This extension is standardfile-image, which was archived. This procedure allows you to significantly reduce the size of the source file, so that in one archive there are several games or programs at once. In addition, the isz extension supports the encryption of confidential information. So, if you do not want to open free access to this or that file, the problem will be solved. In iso format files, there is no such possibility, in spite of the fact that, in fact, they represent the same isz extension, only before compression.
The only difference between the archived isz fromThe usual archive is a narrow focus. Only disc images can be found here. This way of storing information is especially convenient for people who simultaneously keep a lot of games or films on the hard disk. It should be noted that the isz-expansion appeared not so long ago and has not yet gained wide popularity. But everything goes to the fact that soon it will replace the more cumbersome options for storing files in view of their convenience and significant space saving.
Than to open an isz file
Many programs have been created to work with extensionsimages. The most popular of them recognize not only one particular type of file, but several. This is done so that users do not have to download a new utility each time, and they gave their preference to one, but universal. Many of the emulator programs are compatible with isz. Among them you can call Alcohol, UltraISO and Daemon Tools. And the latter is distributed in two versions - full and light.
It is much easier in this case to take advantage ofLite-version of Daemon Tools. Moreover, most people do not like to understand the many settings offered in the extended version of the emulator.
Instructions for using Daemon Tools
Download the program best at the officialsite, since the lite version is freely distributed. By double-clicking on the setup file icon, we are waiting for the window to open. Nothing complicated in the actual installation process, you can safely leave the path and the default settings. Do not forget to close the extra programs beforehand, saving all the important information, as soon as you install the computer, you will need to reboot.
After the process is completed in the Removableone more drive should appear. The virtual drive icon is no different from the usual one, and the principle of operation is very similar to them. Note that in some cases, the new drive must be created on its own. To do this, open the installed program and find the "Add Drive" button in the tools section. Then in the bottom part of the window there will be a SCSI-drive, with which we will work.
Open isz-extension now will not beno difficulty. It is enough to drag the icon of the downloaded image into the active window of Daemon Tools (directly on the image of the virtual drive that appeared). Usually, after this, the autorun function is activated. Then you will have to perform the same actions as usual after starting the game from the disk.
