winiso vs. ultraiso


Question

i'm backup up alot of stuff right now but forgot to rename the cds in order to keep them quite sorted. so i have several images (iso,ccd,cue/bin etc) on my harddisk now which are all named the same. i found out that i can edit the name and re-save them with winiso or ultraiso. my question: which ones of the two programs is better? they seem quite easy to use and both very similar. does one of them have any advantages or disadvantages?

thanks for the upcoming replys.

WinISO does something which I grew to find very irritating. It would make the name of all files it created all CAPS. I kept on having to rename them to their small characters every single time. Another thing which I didn't like was the way you could add directories/files, there wasn't any pane to drag/drop files/folders from; you had to select files separately, it didn't allow multiple folder selection too. UltraISO has this, which makes it THAT much quicker to use. The support for more file types in UltraISO is useful, although I only use it to create ISOs. Haven't tried opening any other format, so I don't know its compatibility with the other formats. If only UltraISO allowed extraction of boot files from CDs (like what ISObuster does), UltraISO would be the best CD-image editor IMO.

cheers!

Good points... What I meant by opening other formats was that I made a ISO of a DVD with Alcohol 120% and it only would do it in the mds/mdf format so WinISO doesn't open it but UltraISO does.

    • Can we bring back manual save?
    • Wow, imagine you dump hundreds of hours into completing things and unlocking stuff and you lose it all. Back in the day when cheats were built into games, you could at least unlock things again that way without spending hundreds of hours again. But those days are long gone for some reason as no one builds cheats into games anymore. So it's even more painful that studio that's on its 6th installment **** it up so badly.
    • Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update by Ivan Jenic Image: Spotify Spotify has just released an update that removes its now infamous disco ball icon. The update reverts the app icon to the familiar flat green logo after weeks of mixed reactions online. The icon arrived on May 13 as part of the company's 20th anniversary celebration and was always intended to be temporary, though Spotify only confirmed that after the backlash started. The disco ball took the internet by storm, as the reception was split. A vocal group of users called it ugly and disorienting, with some iOS users noting that the 3D glowing effect made the app look like it was stuck mid-update. On the other end, the icon picked up a following of its own. Its retro, three-dimensional look immediately stood out against the flat, minimalist aesthetic that has dominated app design for years. It even started a small movement, spawning what people started calling "discomorphism," a mashup of disco and skeuomorphism. Other brands started posting disco ball versions of their own logos, probably in an effort to ride the wave of memes that flooded the internet during late May. Spotify has had a turbulent relationship with its user base lately. Besides the disco ball icon, which certainly wasn't appreciated by everyone, the company has also received backlash for its willingness to include AI-generated music on its platform. On May 17, Spotify promised the old icon would return “in a few weeks.” And now it looks like that time has finally arrived. So, whether you liked the disco ball or it made you uncomfortable, it’s now gone for good. The next time you update the Spotify app on your phone, the old, flat-design icon will return.
