Can't open winrar archive

[b kilburn]

i have just downloaded imgburn. I want to change blu-ray discs (on my hard drive) to iso files mainly so I can use media center to play them through power dvd which it won't do unless they are iso's. I ran img burn on one and it seemed to create an iso file called rar archive. I have winrar 3.7 on my pc but I can't extract anything from the archive (even though it says it is 27gb) so I can't play it in any way. I don't really want an rar archive file so am I doing something wrong here.

Hi and welcome to the forum, b kilburn!

 

Main Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> tab 'Registry'

 

Select ISO and make it to associate with ImgBurn.

 

As it is now they are associated with WinRar and shows up as own by that program. But the file extension should still be .iso. Perhaps you have 'hide file extensions' enabled in Windows?

It's not a winrar file, you just have winrar associated with ISO files. Go into the winrar settings and turn that off.

 

If you built a blu-ray image it'll be using UDF v2.50.

 

I doubt WinRAR can understand v2.50, it probably only supports v1.02.

 

Mount the ISO in DAEMON Tools and install a driver so your OS can read UDF 2.5 - that'll allow explorer/my computer to view the disc.
