Hello...

I used to use Rufus to install ISO's onto drives for my computer, but as of late I just can't get it to work. Now I goofed and have a virus on my windows... What do you guys use to install ISO's?

Windows 8 and upwards. Right click the ISO and select mount. 

OP is talking about burning ISOs to a drive, not mounting them.

 

Edit: By the way I also use Rufus, not sure how you managed to get a virus but I would try to uninstall and reinstall it to try to get Rufus to work.

I did state I'm having issues with that, usually ends with a DLL file issue... Haven't had issues with the ISO's or the version of the client until now so...

If you've got viruses, they may have fucked your Windows-installation up. Might be time to reinstall from scratch.

OP asked how to install iso, mounting in windows 10 is how to do it without 3rd party software. If you need it on removable media just copy the iso to the drive and then mount the iso from the removable drive. That's really the easiest way. It's 2 clicks for mounting, 4 if you want it on a removable drive. Just loading the 3rd party program is 2 clicks on its own. 

 

I don't personally understand why anyone would install extra software to do this.

If the ISO is a bootable one, that method won't work. Think of e.g. Linux-distroes' images, various kinds of rescue-utilities and such.

Like I said before, it sounds like OP is trying to burn the ISO to a drive to create a bootable USB, for example to create a bootable Linux drive or a windows installer drive. You can't just copy an ISO over to create a bootable drive, you have to burn it.

I didn't realize there was an official tool for burning, but after looking at it quickly either I'm missing something or it can only burn to a disc, not a drive.

Please give more info. For one, using term "install" is very confusing here. ISO is image of disc (can be CD, DVD and even HDD/SSD). You do not install ISO to anywhere. It can be mounted or burned, certainly not installed. Mounted to virtual drive or USB (both bootable and not), burned to CD/DVD/BRD.

 

From your opening, I think you are talking about OS installer ISOs to USB. There are other tools besides Rufus to mount to USB (for example Etcher). So if you are getting error while running Rufus, its probably Rufus being the issue and reinstalling that software or trying another version should fix it.

What are the ISOs and what are you trying to install them on?

Like Parrot, fedora and kali distros from their pertaining website.

 

I have a certain laptop I use to install ISO's and to only install ISO's,not the one with the virus. I did get an AV and it did remove it... Lol.

@LogicalDrm

Yes, I am creating boot able drives to install the operating system on a separate ssd/hard-drive. I have tried updating Rufus and since the update it's had issues, I tried running the older versions from 2017 where I know work very well and they have the same issue. I'll try etcher, thank you, and get the newest ISO's if they've been updated in the last few months...

If you catch the DLL error in more detail, we can assist googling the solution on that too.
