    Windows 7 does not have inbuilt support to mount ISO files like in Windows 10. For mounting ISO in Windows 7, you will have to use a third party software. You can use Nero, MagicISO, PowerISO, Dameon Tools LT, UltraISO, and many more.

    You do not mount it to a particular type of drive. It does not matter what type of drive you have in your computer, or even if you have one at all.

    Mounting an ISO file allows you to use it without needing to burn it to a disc. Many computers no longer have a DVD drive, and using the ISO from the hard drive is often faster than reading from an actual disc.
