Some of us are still hoping there is going to be a day when we will see an official Daemon Tools app for Windows 8, even if it might seem a little weird to think about its functionality at the moment. Until that moment comes, we are pleased at least to hear the news that Daemon Tools has been updated for Windows 8.1, getting the full support for Microsoft’s first Windows 8 update.

Besides getting update for Windows 8.1 support, here are some other new features in Daemon Tools:

  • SPTD 1.84
  • Image statistics is no longer collected
  • Minor fixes

To remind you, you can use Daemon Tools on Windows 8 to creates .iso and .mds images and also to emulate virtual CD and DVD drives. Daemon Tools mounts and unmounts images and supports the following file formats in Windows 8, as well: .b5t, .b6t, .bwt, .ccd, .cdi, .cue, .nrg, .pdi, .isz. The paid version of Daemon Tools will also let you compress your image files and protect them with password in Windows 8. Also, you will have option to manage your image collection.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
