In their own words
Disc Studio
Disc Studio is a free Windows workbench for opening, browsing, editing, converting, mounting, and writing disc images. It handles formats including ISO, BIN/CUE, NRG, MDF, CCD, DMG, WIM, ESD, VHD, VHDX, VMDK, ZIP, 7Z, RAR, and DSIM. Users can add or remove image contents, extract files, and save images as ISO, DSIM, or BIN/CUE in 2048 or 2352 mode. The app browses CDs and DVDs and extracts audio tracks from mixed-mode or audio BIN/CUE images as WAV or raw BIN files. Images can be mounted through Windows, WinCDEmu, or ImDisk, with up to eight drive slots. Disc Studio burns with IMAPI, copies discs to ISO, creates bootable USB media, and supports WIM/ESD work. A command-line companion handles create, convert, mount, hash, USB, and burn jobs. Operations run locally and offline after the first download. It requires 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 and is free for personal and commercial use.
