That's where I got the free (with ads) version a day ago; and it sent my
AVs wild with anger. I've run MBAM, Spybot and Adwcleaner to ferret out
its droppings.

Daemon Tools Lite doesn't seem to have a lot of features.
Compared to the paid versions.

It's possible you could get an ISO9660 mounter (virtual cd) from Microsoft.

And a program like 7ZIP, allows extracting individual files
directly from an ISO9660 file.

Granted, Daemon Tools Lite supports more formats, but for
external content coming into the machine, you may be able to
bodge together a solution with existing offerings.

From my notes, it's possible this will convert a
folder of files, into an ISO9660 image. I may have been
using a recipe like this, to pass files into a VM environment
with broken networking. WSUSOffline is normally a tool for
preparing a set of security updates for windows, but it also
uses freeware tools for environment support. And it happens
to have some sort of port of mkisofs.

mkisofs -V "TESTIMG0" -J -r -o 0.iso ./0

The WADK kit may have had "oscdimg.exe", which is
a Microsoft tool that authors bootable installer discs.
This method used to work, to convert Windows 10 Insider download
folder contents, into an installer DVD, but it stopped working
over a year ago (once the Delta encoding era started).
The WADK kit would still have the capability of remastering
install media (customizing Windows installs). This was just
an interesting reuse of the tools.
