Folder2Iso is a very simple yet useful application that creates an ISO file out of any folder on your computer.
The program may come in very handy to users who wish to burn movies or other files on their computers with ease, using just a separate tool that's able to burn ISO files on CDs and DVDs.
Folder2Iso impresses thanks to its simplicity. Although most users expect a rather complicated approach, with tons of features that could make the whole procedure a lot more difficult, everything's pretty simple.
The interface is just minimal and even if it doesn't include a help file, it takes just a few minutes to figure out how to use the program.
Users thus are prompted to select the folder they wish to convert into an ISO file and pick the output, which means they need to provide the location to save the file and its name.
In addition, they have to write down the label of the ISO and choose the Charset, which is the only thing that may get you in trouble when using Folder2Iso.
If you're not sure which one to choose, it's recommended to click on the question mark next to the Charset dropdown menu and read the provided information, this way you can select the best option for you.
After that, just hit the “Generate ISO” button and wait. Usually, Folder2Iso gets the job done in just a few seconds, but this also depends on the overall size of the folder and the number of the included files. Still, the computer isn't stressed up at all and everything works like a charm.
Which leads us to a very simple conclusion: if you need a tool to convert a folder into an ISO image, make sure to put Folder2Iso on top of the list.
