If you have been dealing with softwares and operating systems for a period, then you must have come across an indispensible terminology as "ISO image" or "ISO file". Do you ever wonder what do they mean exactly while working with them? Most of the users do not pay much attention to the detail of the file, but rather proceed with the procedures that lay ahead. Well that is not going to support you if you head on with intricate software and operating system issues for the long run. So it is better to know what ISO images really are.

ISO images are basically images containing information of a particular software or operating system you are so seeking in a compressed format. This menial format allows software vendors and IT companies to securely and conveniently share their products across the market without much difficulty. And ISO can be burned into DVD and USB for installing a operating system.

So if you ever run into a situation where your system has been compromised and you need to re-install or format it immediately, then you definitely need an ISO burner to burn ISO images to an optical disk (USB or DVD/CD). Mere copy paste of the file into the disk would not do the job. And this is what we are going to discuss in this article in detail.
