I am sure you guys have used Daemon. So do I.
It is great. but sometime, it is hard to mount a disk
image which is located in a deep directory.

I found there are some way to mount disk image
to Daemon more easily.

Methode A: Using third party tools

1. DAEMount.
It is developed by Aldo Vargas (aldo@aldostools.com)
http://www.aldostools.com/daemount.html
DAEMount is front-end for DAEMON Tools. You mount a disk image
by double-clicking on the file icon. You select where to mount the
image if you have more than one virtual drive.

2. AwxDTools ( http://www.hbreitner.de/awxdtools/ )
This is a Daemon-Tools Shell-Extension. It adds more options to
the context-menu for ImageFiles which are supported by Daemon-Tools.
You can mount a image by right click on it.

3. DaemonUI ( http://www.hbreitner.de/daemonui/download.htm )
As you can see from it name, DaemonUI provides a graphical user
interface for Daemon-Tools. It supports Daemon-Tools version 2.41
(or newer, but not version 4).

Methode B: modify the action for ImageFile
We can modify the action for ImageFile to mount it by double click
or right click. I use ISO file in the following example.
Step 1, open a Explorer window. then Tools-> Folder Options... ->File Types
Step 2, Click the New button (if ISO file has been registered, then select it)
Step 3, Click the Advanced button, give a name to this type of file
Step 4, then click the New button, give a name for "Action" and use the following line for "Application used to preform action"

QUOTE

"C:\Program Files\D-Tools\daemon.exe" -Mount 0,"%1"

That is it. Now you can mount your ISO file by right click on it.
And use Eject for unmont. :)
You can you above steps for your CUE, CCD etc....

Methode C: Edit windows' registry
If you do not want to registor the ImageFile type one by one, try this.
Copy the following line to notepad and save it as .reg file.
then import it into Windows' registry.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Daemon.Support.Image]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Daemon.Support.Image\DefaultIcon]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\D-Tools\\Daemon.exe\""

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Daemon.Support.Image\shell\Mount]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Daemon.Support.Image\shell\Mount\command]

@="\"C:\\Program Files\\D-Tools\\Daemon.exe\" -mount 0,\"%1\""


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Drive\shell\Unmount]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Drive\shell\Unmount\command]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.bin]
@="Daemon.Support.Image"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.iso]
@="Daemon.Support.Image"
                                                               
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.bwt]
@="Daemon.Support.Image"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.ccd]
@="Daemon.Support.Image"


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.mds]
@="Daemon.Support.Image"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.cdi]
@="Daemon.Support.Image"


Enjoy it.

Useful info. Although I need to mount new images quite rarely, I usually need only one of two images at the time and I just keep them all mounted at once. And changing it from the basic DT menu isn't that time consuming

Anyways I gotta inform my mate who has a extensive music collection (CDs, legal) that of which he likes to make images and then listen them from there and transfer them to his office so he can enjoy music there as well. I think he uses a player software that reads straight from the image.

Oh and then there are the people who get most of their stuff in CD/DVD image format. Or, I mean, so I've heard.
