Running ISO files from tablet?

[SharinganSensei]

Hi there i am a wondering tech guy for some costumers,
I wanted to know if there is a tablet app to emulate a ISO file on the Tablet to the pc as a installation disc or something of the sort

 

Why tablet?
I got one for my bday half a year ago and its not a very good tablet (sorry mom) but it can do some work done.

Not sure exactly what you're asking for here.  You want to run a Windows ISO file on your tablet?

Do you want to use the tablet as installation cd? If so why not use a flash drive?

You could. But I recommend using something else. You need to format drive as bootable. Or create partition and format that. Worst case is that you mess something and end up with tablet without OS and no easy way for fixing that.

If your tablet is running Android, supports being used as a USB guest device and is 'rooted', you can try using DriveDroid.

Otherwise, as @LoGiCalDrm said, you should buy a cheap 8 GB flash drive (Windows 10's image file is 4.7 GB) and use that as bootable media, or use an old fashioned DVD and burn the OS installation disc image onto that.

Say i have a 16G drive lying around somewhere
can i make it emulate different ISO files for different OS's?

You can't make it emulate different ISO files, but you can add multiple ISO files and put a bootloader on it (e.g. GRUB, Easy2Boot) to be able to select the ISO files when booting from it

I've had good luck with using YUMI to make multiboot USB drives (it supports both Windows and Linux-based distros), it's pretty straightforward and does the bootloader setup automatically. There's a How-To section in the website I linked

I found this little guy while researching the Bootloader

This device can emulate a DVD drive from iso's stored on him
