Second, give full play to potential

Friends of the game know that some games are CD-ROM, that is, you must put the corresponding CD into the CD-ROM before you can play these games normally. In this way, if you don't have a CD-ROM drive, you can't play the game. Even with a CD-ROM drive, using the CD-ROM drive every day will shorten the life of the CD-ROM drive. At this point, we can use VCdControlTool to solve the problem.

However, before using VCdControlTool, we must first make these game files into a CD image file that VCdControlTool can recognize. So how do you make a CD image file?

First download a CD image creation software called WinISO (you can also use UltraISO), install and run
Click the "Add" button to add CD-ROM or other location files to WinISO Then click the menu "File→Save As" and select a location to save the CD image file to complete the production of the CD image file. Then add the newly created CD image file to the virtual CD-ROM drive through the third step above.

Edit Comment: Microsoft's own things, compatibility does not have to worry, it is also very simple to use, not as gorgeous and huge as many other Microsoft products. It also supports a lot of image file formats, and because it is green software, it will not produce the same as the Deamon Tools, but found that the virtual CD-ROM still exists. Suggest friends to give it a try.
