How to Use Cue File Magic ISO

CUE files are "image" or "mirror" files. They are referred to as such due to the fact that they are the same as a CD/DVD disc, only in virtual format. These files are created from discs and are used as a backup for important programs. An isolated CUE file cannot do anything by itself; it must be combined with software that can utilize it. This software is known as MagicISO. MagicISO has plenty of options and features, such as "mounting." Mounting involves the program's virtual drive and utilizes it to unlock and use the image file.

Things You'll Need

1. Download MagicISO (see Resources) from http://www.magiciso.com/download.htm.

4. Click the "Mount" option in the menu.

5. Browse for and choose the CUE file that you want to use, then click on "OK." The file will mount. From this point on, it should open and run automatically.
