Winmount is a very innovative product as a CD/DVD-ROM emulator, but it's more powerful than traditional CD/DVD-ROM emulator, because it is able to mount ZIP, RAR, ISO files and so on, it can create a virtual drive for each compressed file so that you can use the documents inside it directly , no need to open it, so it can save your time and space.
Here are the main functions of WinMount:
 Mounting and Unmounting compressed files
Generally speaking, Zip or Rar files need to be decompressed before we can actually use them, if the file is large, the whole decompression process will take a lot of time. But now if you have got WinMount at hand, you don't need to tolerate the boring moment spent in the decompressing process.
When you've got your WinMount ready to work, you can just right-click on the archive, select "Mount to a new drive " menu item, a few seconds later, the operating system will notify you that a new device has been found and a new drive is created and ready to work. If you open it, you can see that all the files inside the archive are ready for your use.
By WinMount, no matter how large the archive is, you can use the files inside it directly after only a few seconds, you don't have to tolerate the long time for the decompressing process anymore. This powerful software can
save your time Effectively.
Serving as a CD/DVD-ROM emulator
WinMount can also be used as a CD/DVD-ROM emulator, it can mount many image files such as ISO, BIN to virtual drive and you can use it directly. After you mounted a iso file to a virtual drive, the OS will autoplay it just like you have put a DVD disc into you DVD-ROM.
Creating archives
WinMount can also help you to create archives. You can use it as WinRAR, just right-click the files you wanna compressed and select the "add to" item, then select a output formats (including ZIP, RAR and 7Z) and input a output filename, after a few seconds, WinMount will generate a archive for you.
Generally speaking, the archive created by WinMount is smaller than the archive which created by other softwares, so it can help you to manage your files and save your space.
Creating empty virtual drive
By WinMount, you can also create a 32G empty virtual drive. Users often ask what it is for, well, the answer is this kind of drive is pretty much like a RAM Disk which is actually a virtual disk in the memory of a computer. Obviously it is very fast, everything in it,however, will be lost once the computer is restarted. WinMount doesn't take up much memory on new creation of the drive, but it will gradually take up some as the WRITE instructions are being executed.
There is another option which enables you to create, by default setting, a writable formatted 32G empty drive. Anything you write into it will be written back into the image file at the background. When you remount it next time, the stuff you wrote into it before is still there.
