Daemon Tools should not try to mount folders

mozvip · 2007-12-04, 07:59

I have some folders whose name ends with ".iso", Daemon tools is trying to mount them and of course fails. The Daemon tools plugin should only try to mount regular files and not folders.

Why would your folder end with .iso???

It shouldn't be much of a problem to just rename the folders, you could even keep the "iso" part, just remove the "."

However I agree with him that it shouldn't be that way. It should not be very hard to make the code checking if the filename ends with .iso to also check if its in fact a folder.

Just another little step on the way to perfection =)
