“Mount with Daemon Tools” Shell extension

January 29th, 2008 · No Comments · Tips n' Tricks

 

I recently discovered that the great program Daemon Tools (CD/DVD emulator for image files) now has a pay-for alternative (Pro) to the free version (Lite). I decided to check it out because I imagined it would have lots of great new features, I especially wanted a “mount with deamon tools” shell extension (for when you right-click on any file in explorer). This of course had been implented in the Pro version, but it did not work with the .img file format and in the forums the developers declared that they won’t be implenting it ever. So I decided to take on this problem myself. Also, I was gonna do it in the Lite version, since the Pro version didn’t seem to have any good features worth paying for (the only extra thing was an annoying GUI really).

 

Deamon Tools Lite (and Pro) have command line switches. These can be used to create scripts, .bat files, shortcuts, whatever you want. One of these switches is particularly interesting: -mount.

 

-mount

allows mounting images from command line (or shortcut).

Syntax is: -mount [n], [path]

where ‘n’ means DVD-ROM device number (’0′ - ‘3′ allowed) and ‘path’ is the full path to the image file.

Example: daemon.exe -mount 0,”c:\My Images\nameofimage.cue”.

Do not forget to set the path in quotes if it contains spaces!

 

How to add a shell extension for an image file to mount with daemon tools:

 

In Explorer goto Tools -> Folder Options and select the File Types tab. Select the file type you want to enable this for (for example .img) and press Advanced. Press New. As Action type in:

 

“Mount with Daemon Tools”

 

and as Application type in:

 

“C:\Program Files\DAEMON Tools Lite\daemon.exe” -mount 0, “%1″

 

That is, if that’s where your daemon tools installation is located. If you installed to another directory, you need to adjust the above line to fit your installation. When done editing, press OK three times to get out of the menus.

 

Now there’s just one last step before you’re done. Right-click on your Daemon Tools tray icon and goto Options and disable Secure mode. This will disable Daemon Tools asking you if “it’s ok to mount?” each time you try to mount an image file.

 

That’s it! Now you should be able to right-click on any .img file and select “Mount with Daemon Tools”. I suggest you also add this Action to the following file types: .cue, .iso, .nrg, .mds, since those are fairly common.

 

 

Problemet mitt er feilmeldingene eg får, og at det ikkje funker i heile tatt.

 

Eg har selvfølgelig sjekka at filbanen er riktig.

 

Windows XP Pro og Daemon Tools Lite (4.12.3)

 

Bruker awxDtools på .iso filer.

 

EDIT: Dumme meg glømte å legge til feilmeldingene:

 

Første feil er :

 

"Error in command line" (Har trippelsjekka med guiden)

 

Neste er:

 

"Kunne ikke montere avbildingsfil. Ingen tilgang til avbildingsfil."

 

Samme image mounter fint ved å gå den tunge vegen.
