Mounting ISO files in Windows 8

[Praetorius]

I used to be able to mount ISO files as a virtual DVD-ROM on my Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro. Now on my DELL XPS 15, there is no such option. Whatever software was on the Lenovo, it seemed to be part of Windows 8, as I had not installed anything like DAEMON Tools on it. Can anyone confirm if mounting ISOs is a standard feature of Windows 8? If not, I'll have to figure out how/why it's on my Lenovo laptop.

Right-click > Mount. If it's not there, ISOs may not be associated properly. If your Dell came preloaded with junk, something else probably opens ISO files.
