    "Uninstall leaves shell extension "adware" in place"

    March 11, 2011  |   By rcbullar

    Version: MagicISO Maker 5.5 build 281

    Pros

    Successfully decompressed proprietary "UIF" files back into non-proprietary ISO files.

    Cons

    The uninstall left an Explorer shell extension in place. The extension creates a context menu for all files, and if you select any item in the context menu you get a popup prompting you to reinstall the program. Relegates the product to crapware.

    "Want to suffer? Then, this is the software to use."

    January 28, 2011  |   By opera11111

    Version: MagicISO Maker 5.5 build 281

    Pros

    Easy-looking interface.

    Cons

    Impossible to convert DMG files that have HFS+ feature.

    Summary

    Impossible to convert DMG files that have HFS+ feature. You cannot figure out from HELP what to make it work. You follow the instructions (there is a visual of what needs settings need to be checked). You check those settings. You then fill out all the screens again selecting all the settings (which don't get saved - God forbid) and you keep getting a message telling you their web page to LEARN HOW to convert this type of file. You then go there, do the same thing, get the same error again, follow the instructions, select all the settings and then you get the same error message sending you back to the same web page with the same useless instructions.

    "Not worth my time"

    January 24, 2011  |   By Wolvie38

    Version: MagicISO Maker 5.5 build 281

    Pros

    None found

    Cons

    I have no idea what the full package is like, but the trial will not allow a large enough ISO to burn a CD. Waste of my time!

    Summary

    Don't bother

    "Not as bad as they say, have to know what youre doing.."

    January 17, 2011  |   By Kevvo2010

    Version: MagicISO Maker 5.5 build 281

    Pros

    Very good, as it allowed me to mount, extract, and open ISO images that were 6GB and up. It has a limitation of 10GB in the free version, and that's more than I'll ever need from an ISO image. Ultra ISO is worse because the limit is like 600MB.

    Cons

    Created an invalid startup entry on my computer on at least 2 occasions, but I'm sure that's nothing that an uninstall/install can't fix. Also, this program does not contain a digital publisher's signature, which basically means use at your own risk

    Summary

    The 10GB capacity is great in comparison to other ISO programs. UltraISO only allows like 600MB in the free version, and if you're trying to mount a larger ISO you're not gonna have much luck unless winRAR allows you to extract, but large file extractions can take a very long time, compared to a few seconds of mounting. It's your choice.

    "Your accusation is NOT true!"

    January 6, 2011  |   By TonyMyers56

    Version: MagicISO Maker 5.5 build 281

    Pros

    I just created an ISO rip of a DVD that is 6.6 GIG in size (Legend of the Guardians: Owls of Ga'Hoole) with the demo version and when I mounted the ISO, it played with no problems whatsoever.

    Cons

    No problems that I have found so far.

    Summary

    This is the first time that I have used the demo program. I worked perfectly, the first time after loading and making an ISO version of a DVD. It did not limit the size of my ISO file that was created.
