I cannot mount ISO files in Windows 10 anymore. I used to right click on it and click Mount. I've read online that the fix for this is to right click on the file, click Open With and select Windows Explorer. However, that is not an option. The only option I have is Windows Disc Image Burner, which doesn't add the Mount function in the right click menu. How do I get the Mount option back?

Hi, I´m Douglas M.
I would like to help you, When you right click an ISO file and Mount does not show at top of list the the file association is wrong.
Click on Open With and you need to make Windows Explorer the default.
After that the Mount choice will be there.
kinds Regards
If you read my question, you would have known that Windows Explorer does not appear as an option in the Open With menu, and that is the problem I am trying to solve.
Hi Matt
Sorry for the inconvenience this is causing.
Which version of Windows 10 is currently installed? See how to verify:
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wik...
Press Windows key + X
Click Task Manager
Select the Processes tab
Scroll down to Windows Explorer then select it
Click Restart
If that does not work...
Try these first to see if they work:
Open Start, type: CMD
Right click CMD
Click Run as administrator
Type in at the prompt OR Copy and Paste these one at a time : (Hit enter after each)
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Also run the System File Checker utility:
Open Start, type: CMD
Right click CMD
Click Run as administrator
At the Command Prompt, type: sfc/scannow
This will check for any integrity violations
Restart your system
If none of the above works, then I recommend you perform a repair upgrade:
Hello Matt76q
I use a program called Power2Go. It came pre-installed on my Windows 10 laptop. If it did not come pre-installed, I'll leave a link for a free trial (It is on the legitimate website)
Steps:
Hope this helps!
