SysTools ISO Creator
New Delhi, India
What it is
SysTools ISO Creator creates and edits ISO files from local files and folders on Windows and macOS. It supports ISO 9660, UDF, and Rock Ridge formats, and can build bootable images from system files or installation folders containing the needed files. When creating an image, the software keeps the original folder structure, file names, and paths. A real-time ViewLog record tracks activity and can produce an action report. The product is described as offline software: it does not require an internet connection and does not upload data to a cloud or server. The Free Version costs nothing, but limits large ISO handling and saving edited or bootable images. The Full Version costs $29 once, removes those restrictions, and allows all ISO files to be saved. Windows requires 100 MB disk space, 4 GB RAM, and .NET Framework 4.5 or newer. Mac requires 200 MB disk space and 4 GB RAM.
