PowerISO is a powerful CD/DVD image file processing tool, which allows you to open, extract, create, edit, burn, compress, encrypt, split and convert ISO files, and mount these files with internal virtual drive.
It can process almost all CD-ROM image files including ISO and BIN. PowerISO can be used easily, which support shell integration, context menu, drag and drop, clipboard copy paste.
This muscular disc-imaging utility is not kidding around (though we thought the demo might be). PowerISO lets you mount virtual drives, create bootable discs, and generate CD and floppy images. It supports a huge number of image formats, including standard ISO and IMG files as well as files created by almost all popular disc-burning programs such as Nero, CloneCD, and Alcohol120%.
Our one major caveat is that the trial version doesn't let you create images larger than 300MB (most CDs hold 700MB), making it much harder to fully test the product. On the other hand, the trial period is unlimited, so some users may actually prefer this arrangement. Trial restrictions aside, we think PowerISO makes a good pick for intermediate to advanced users.

When Windows saves your data it splits them into single data fragments across your disk, which means access times to your files and data are increased enormously.
A build-up of fragmented data on your computer slows down its performance substantially. The read and write heads have to look for every single fragment of data, every time you want to access or work on it. Over time, this also leads to worn out hardware.
To ensure your PC is running at its peak, you need to systematically pack these fragments back together. A defragmentation puts these fragments back together and stores the files in separate Zones on your disk (Zone Filing), according to their importance and regularity of use.
This leads to much quicker system and program starts and faster application times. O&O Defrag has a time scheduler and carries out regular automated sweeps of your system.
By activating the Background Defragmentation, you not only bring your PC back to its peak, but you also prevent future data fragmentation at source, all automated and silently running in the background.

Every time you use your computer, even when it's brand new, the files on your PC or laptop will continuously become fragmented.
This means that these files are split into millions of pieces, and this occurs even more so when you go to add, modify and delete them.
So when you go to access a file--even just to read it--it will take much longer than necessary because Windows has to first find each piece of the file before you can even see it. This makes using your computer, and doing everything you want, much slower than it should be.
Fragmentation also leads to much slower boot times and will make applications run slow or even potentially cause them to "lock-up" or freeze.
Defragging your computer puts the pieces of your files back together into a single piece--the way they should be. A defragmented computer will boot quicker, files will be accessed faster, and your applications will not hang.
A good disk defragger will not only defragment, but will also consolidate the free space on your drives into one large piece so when you create a new file, there will be enough free space to save that file in a single piece, rather than fragmenting right away.
Defrag for a faster computer and a healthy PC.

UltraISO can extract, create, edit, and convert CD/DVD image files.
It can directly edit an ISO file, make ISO images from CD/DVD-ROMs, create a new ISO from files and folders on your computer, and make bootable CDs and DVDs.
In addition, UltraISO can convert nearly all known CD and DVD image formats to ISO, BIN/CUE, Nero (NRG), Alcohol 120% (MDS/MDF), and CloneCD (CCD/IMG/SUB) formats, as well as burn CD/DVD images directly with built-in burning engine and emulate ISO images with up to 8 virtual CD/DVD drives.
It even can create a disc with a menu for booting several OSs.
The interface is well organized, though rather plain, and we wish its icons were more readable. Also on the negative side, the program can't mount CD images, which will diminish its value for some. However, if you need support for multiple image formats and want to design bootable discs, UltraISO makes a very good pick.
