Image files can be "inserted" into the virtual drive from your harddisk or from a network drive by just a double-click, and thus be used like a normal CD, DVD, or Blu-ray. Virtual CloneDrive supports up to 15 virtual drives at the same time - no matter if the image file contains audio, video or just simple data. Virtual CloneDrive is fully integrated in Windows Explorer context menus and on top of all it is free! + +![](https://www.elby.ch/img/screenshot/screenshot-vcd-1.en.png) + +#### System Requirements + +- A Windows compatible PC with minimum 500 MHz Processor and 256 MB RAM +- Windows XP/XP64/VISTA/VISTA64/Win7/Win7-64/Win8/Win8-64/Win10/Win11 +- Administrator rights are required to install. + +#### Features + +- Mounts images as virtual drive +- Supports all common image formats such as ISO, BIN, IMG, UDF, DVD, and CCD +- Emulation of CD, DVD, and Blu-ray media +- Supports up to 15 virtual drives at the same time +- History of recently mounted images +- Automount last image +- Unmount image with eject button +- Seamless integration in Windows Explorer context menu +- Easy to use - just double-click an image file to mount as a drive +- Virtual CloneDrive is freeware, you may use it at no cost \ No newline at end of file
