<div dir="ltr">A very long time ago, I believe on Windows I used daemon tools for this kind of thing. Later on, Poweriso. More recently, xorriso in Linux to build a custom UEFI image or just dd to create a straight image of USB media. It sounds to me like you were able to build a bootable USB image that you just want to convert to ISO, so perhaps dd would be sufficient here, so long as you don't need to make other customizations.<div><br></div><div>-Rich<br><div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Mar 20, 2022 at 12:27 AM Drew King <<a href="mailto:dking65@kingconsulting.us">dking65@kingconsulting.us</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

<p><font size="4">I need to make a bootable ISO from a series of
files and folders that are over 5 gigabytes in size. Larger than
your standard CD or DVD. The regular programs that I use like
imgburn and anyburn claim to be able to make a bootable ISO file
and I'm even using the dos 622 IMG file to make the file disk
bootable theoretically, only it doesn't work!</font></p>
<p><font size="4">What I did was run the Rufus program that I ran
this past Wednesday during a demo for you and now that I have a
proper USB flash drive I want to create an ISO file for the
purpose of creating a virtual machine inside the VM Ware player
application. VM Ware player does not support booting from a USB
flash drive although it does support booting from an ISO file.
VM Ware player new virtual machine successfully boots the
original windows 11 ISO file only it doesn't boot off of the
modified ISO file.<br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="4">Does anybody have a small utility that's free that
can take a bunch of files/folders and convert them into a
bootable ISO?</font></p>
