Sucks, did something to my game disks now I can’t install or play any of them. I used the image wizard to make back iso files to play without disk(didn’t work) now whenever I try to install the game it doesn’t work, makes my computer freeze and then it crashes..reset my pc and never tried putting the disks in again..it’s a pain I’m not willing to go through again!

Has not been meaningfully updated in a year. Relies on outdated and buggy SPTD layer that has not been updated for windows 7 in four years. New Windows 7 Updates now render it completely nonfunctional. Now installs crapware. Still does not support virtual burner. The developers wasted effort on an audio cd ripper and sound file converter. Now that deamon tools. Protected cds/dvds are dead so use a better ripping software.

The fact that it uinundates you with crapware during install and then INVISIBLY installs more crapware without asking is beyond maddening. Uninstall program does not work. Forced to manually remove this pile of junk from my system. Avoid at all costs. I despise software that does backhanded things like this.

I deleted the program as soon as I saw the crapware that came with it. I used the program a long time ago and it was OK but the version with Smart File Advisor was too much. Of course that part didn't uninstall. I used the directions here to uninstall it but some of the registry keys didn't appear on my system. I deleted what I found and so far it appears I don't still have the crapware. I tried an unknown file type and it Smart File Advisor didn't appear.

Here's how to remove Smart File Advisor crapware which you are forced to install:
First, remove these registry entries (shown as a .reg file):
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\sfa_checksum]
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\!sfa]
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Unknown]
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Unknown]
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\*\shell\sfa_checksum]
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\*\shell\!sfa]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"Smart File Advisor"=""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"SFAUpdater"=""
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Smart File Advisor_is1]
Second, delete these folders (only one will exist, depending on version of Windows):
C:\Program Files\Smart File Advisor
C:\Program Files (x86)\Smart File Advisor
Yes, I know the "run" registry value remains. .reg files don't allow removing specific data values of registry keys.

I have several different programs for burning, so I bought the Alcohol 52% version which is less expensive.
It works flawlessly at what it does. I couldn't be happier with it nor recommend it more highly.

A fantastic product. It does so much. Have been previously using Elby's Virtual Clonedrive, but this is much more powerful - giving no less than 31 virtual drives.
It can also read and write to far more image formats.
The disc copy feature is good, very good at duplicating DVD*Rs.
The program has loads more features, such as a disc & drive analyser and disc eraser.

Works quite well for what it's suppose to do. Some of the best results you could hope for backing up copy protected material.
One warning, do not enable the image drive if you are running Edonkey or Overnet. Running the image drive and Edonkey at the same time seems to cause a memory leak that will lock up the system after a short time, usually corrupting your downloads since Edonkey can't close correctly, which requires you put time into recovering your downloads.
