Native ISO mounting in Windows 8 - Page 2 Well, finally the ability to mount an ISO file. My Linux boxes were mounting ISO files back in 1999.
I'm sure "part" of the reason this is coming so late to Windows is that Microsoft would have stepped on plenty of toes of third parties like daemon tools and such which have provided this ISO mounting utility. Just like MSE, I think they often wait to come to the party way late giving the 3rd parties plenty of time to gain their userbase.
