In their own words
DAEMON Tools Lite
DAEMON Tools Lite creates disc images and mounts virtual discs, VHDs, and TrueCrypt files on Windows. It can create MDX, MDS, and ISO images; its Image Editor can make images from discs, files, folders, and Audio CDs, and convert or edit those formats. The free edition emulates up to 4 DT and SCSI devices. Paid editions list capacity for up to 256 DT and 32 SCSI devices. Virtual HDD tools include VHD creation, RAM disks, and TrueCrypt file support. Disc Burn handles images, data, and audio on optical media, as well as copying and erasing discs. Windows Explorer integration can mount associated images and archives. The iSCSI Initiator connects to iSCSI targets so remote images can be used as local ones. Catch! lets users browse and back up Android, iOS, and Windows PC content over a local wireless network. The free license includes limited support and partner offers. The free plan is free; the Personal License is $29.99 as a one-time purchase, billed as a Lifetime Subscription, with lifetime updates and additional features. A 14-day trial is also listed.
