Have you recently downloaded a UIF file and now want to mount it so that you can view the contents? A UIF
file is actually a MagicISO CD/DVD image file. In order to view the contents, you have to first mount the UIF
image file.
There are many formats for creating images files of CD/DVDs, but UIF is used because it provides better
encryption and also has better compression. The most common format is ISO.
Unfortunately, MagicISO is not free, but you can still use the trial edition to decompress UIF files. First
download the software and then start it up. Then click on Tools and Decompress UIF Image.
Choose the source file and the destination location for the ISO file. The nice thing is that MagicISO will
convert the UIF file to ISO format, so you can then mount it using any virtual disk manager software.

Now download MagicDisc, which is a free program, and install it. This program supports a large range of
virtual disc formats including BIN, CIF, NRG, IMG, VCD, C2D, PDI, and lots more. Its a great tool for
managing virtual CD/DVD drives.
Now right-click on the MagicDisc icon on your desktop and expand Virtual CD/DVD-ROM, choose X: No
Media and then choose Mount.
Find the decompressed ISO file on your computer and click Open! You should now be able to go to My
Computer and browse the CD like a normal Windows drive. Enjoy!

Ive always used MagicDisc to mount the UIF files directly, without converting them to ISO first.
The latest version (046) of Pismo File Mount Audit Package can mount UIF files, and there is a ptiso
command line tool that can convert them to ISO or Compact ISO.
pismotechnic.com/pfm/ap/
An undocumented feature in PFMAP allows you to do on-the-fly conversion of UIF (or DAA, ISZ,
CISO) to ISO. For example, this allows you to use the free command line cdburn.exe and dvdburn.exe
tools from Microsoft without having to first create the uncompressed ISO file on your hard drive.
thank u very much. . . . .i was really troubling with an important UIF file. . . . .thanks 4 this piece of

Hi
Is there a program for managing iso files that works in windows xp professional, no service packs
installed? I need to mount and burn a dvd from an iso file. Everything you have said about iso files fails
to work in xp pre-service packs, especially when iso is too big to burn to a cd.
RG
Thanks!
or you could just use this app on a mac.. simple and easy

Hi, I downloaded a UIF file. But when i opened .uif file to .iso (i.e., to decompress) its showing the
source file is not a valid UIF image!. How can I open it?
You can use this software below to convert a UIF file to ISO. Then you can load up the ISO image or
burn it to CD/DVD.
