Gilles Vollant WinImage

Gilles Vollant WinImage is a shareware program that can be used to copy disks as images, and this software also has an integrated set of features that can allow users to create, view and edit supported disk image formats. It can reproduce data from partitions of physical drives like USB data storage devices, CD-ROMs, internal hard disks, VHDs and floppy disks, as well as from entire directory libraries (Linux, ISO, DMF, FAT, NTFS, VHD). The data included in the disk image can then be viewed and accessed from a virtual drive. From the image, files can be extracted, formats changed, new indexes added, and the image itself can be defragmented. WinImage can be used to create programs that remove viruses or customized boot disks. Several functions can also be automated through its Batch Assistant function. It can also serve as a backup for the user’s hard disk. WinImage is available in versions that are suitable for Windows 95/98, and Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 and displays the Windows interface. Gilles Vollant WinImage is shared on the website of the Association of Software Professionals and may be used on trial for 30 days.
