Tip - How to Create an ISO File in Nero

Ahead’s Nero is a burning utility for Windows that provides an overwhelmingly comprehensive array of features related to CD and DVD authoring. These include the ability to back-up, convert, rip, organise, as well as burn, data. There are a multitude of different flavours of Nero on the market - some are more compact and, consequently, lighter on features (such as Nero BurnLite), whereas other versions are heavier installations, with functionality distributed over multiple application components (like the recent Nero Multimedia Suite 10). This makes actually locating specific functionality within the various components and menus tricky, particularly for new users to the Nero way of doing things. If you similarly daunted by Nero’s plethora of tricks and tools, and want simply to create an ISO of a CD, DVD or folder on your hard drive, then follow the steps below in our simple guide.

The steps in this process may differ slightly from version to version of Nero, but the general premise remains the same.
