Using IsoBuster is in fact easy.
You just need to know a few things :
  • Scanning a CD / DVD / Image File layout and
  • File-System(s) is done automatically, once the device is selected.
  • Actions are triggered by selecting an object (
  • track, file, directory, ...) and clicking the right mouse button.
  • IsoBuster is many tools in one, don't let it confuse you.  E.g. don't go creating an image file if you just want to recover data etc.


  • When you select a drive or an image file, the CD / DVD in the drive or the image file will be scanned automatically.
    The content will be listed immediately, the session(s), track(s) and file-systems.

    If you don't see anything, it means IsoBuster could not detect anything or the device is still mounting the media.
    In case of the latter, wait till the media is mounted properly by the drive.  
    In most cases you can monitor this by looking at the LED behavior of your CD/DVD drive.
    There are cases when the CD / DVD reader will not mount media anymore because it is beyond recognition !
    If the drive doesn't mount the media, IsoBuster will of course also not be able to access the media.
