Windows 10: Error found in File explorer / .iso mounting

Hi there

Seems I've got a hideous error here -- Mounting a DVD (bog standard - not Blu ray) as an ISO file Windows explorer shows file size as a whopping 95 GB !!!!!!!!

Handbrake then won't encode to mkv / mp4 file for my media streamer.

Also the mounted ISO won't show unless you actually click on This PC.

The actual file size is around 8 GB !!!!!!

mounting CD/DVDs in windows 10 not acting ike normal CD/DVD drive

Problem is not resolved.

I'm using Windows Explorer to mount ISO files. (Right click ISO, and choose MOUNT in File Explorer)

The file mounts as a drive letter in File Explorer, but does not auto-play (autorun.inf is COMPLETELY ignored on the image)

If I right-click the newly mounted drive letter, options for auto-play/autorun are missing (e.g. I do not get the option to run or install from media)

if I open the mounted drive, I can see, and copy all of the files. I can even run those that can be properly run from anywhere.

executables that require the CD to properly run (autorun.exe for example) either do not run, or error out.

I've tested the ISOs on other systems that use different apps to mount ISO files (an example is virtual CD) and the mounted ISO files worked without any issue, using the exact same ISO files. I can also insert the actual CD associated with said games/apps,
and they work normally as well.

This appears to be a problem specific to Windows Explorer, and ISO files.

If you would like to continue helping me troubleshoot this, you have a limited window. I'm working on backing everything up that I can, and will be wiping the entire PC to perform a complete, fresh reinstall of Windows 10. This will probably be completed
by the end of the week.

 

Windows files corrupt, SFC Scannow and Dism could not complete correctly.

I downloaded and mounted the Windows 10 ISO, used the command you posted but it still came up with the error:

Error: 0x800f081f

The source files could not be found.
