IsoBuster 2.7 Release date 12/22/2009

The Ultimate CD/DVD and BD/HD DVD data recovery software !

Rescue lost files from a bad or trashed CD or DVD or a Blu Ray disc (e.g. BD or HD DVD) ! Save important documents, precious pictures or video from the family, your only system backup, ...
IsoBuster can do it all !

One tool, supporting all formats, for only one very democratic price.

No accumulated cost if you need more than one type media supported. IsoBuster is a highly specialized yet easy to use optical media data recovery tool. It supports all optical disc formats and all common optical disc file-systems. Start up IsoBuster, Insert a disc, select the drive (if not selected already) and let IsoBuster mount the media. IsoBuster immediately shows you all the tracks and sessions located on the media, combined with all file-systems that are present. This way you get easy access, just like explorer, to all the files and folders per file-system. Instead of being limited to one file-system that the OS picks for you, you have access to "the complete picture". Access data from older sessions, access data that your OS (e.g. Windows) does not see or hides from you etc.

Combine this all-revealing functionality with far better read and recovery mechanisms, scanning for lost files functionality, workarounds for a wide range of drive and software bugs, limitations or shortcomings and you have an enormously powerful data recovery tool. IsoBuster is must-have-software for every PC user and is deliberately kept low priced to be able to offer a solution for everybody.

IsoBuster is easy to use and thoroughly tested.
This application will work under Windows 2000, 2003, XP, VISTA & Windows 7 (Home - Ultimate), 32 and 64 bit versions of the OS.

Changes:

Support for interleaved files in the ISO9660 / Joliet file-system (rare but it can happen)
Support for Right to Left reading languages and their optimized language dlls
Proper print functionality from the View/Edit text window (formatting, copies, collate etc.)

Improvements:

Hard coded ignore of drive "HUAWEI Mass Storage" which is a USB modem with CDFS and which returns drive type CDROM, but it behaves badly and causes crashes
Implemented *.cwk file-type recognition for found files based on their signature
Ctrl-p (Print) and Ctrl-s (Save) implemented in the View/Edit text window
Implemented ability to read raw on DVD in [Business] mode when the disc is Blank (some rare drives allow this on readable media without TOC, but they return user data, which is then remapped to raw by IsoBuster)
Program start-up speed improved by skipping network drives to avoid long delays
Create MD5 of image filename dialog improved
Various other GUI improvements

Fixes:

In rare cases, on Windows OS with particular settings, the program would start with an "Invalid code page" error. This has been fixed
Fixed issue that made the online check occur despite the user saying No
Fixed it so that the nag screen doesn't show at the first try
Fix in CueSheet handling to better deal with image files containing different block sizes per track

NOTE:
Similar to version 2.6, and all future versions, this version will not work anymore on old, officially "End Of Life", Microsoft OS: Windows 95, 98, ME and NT4 due to the too big differences between the early OS and the modern OS. It's simply not possible anymore to support and create functionality for the modern OS (XP, VISTA, 7) and still keep it compatible with the old OS.

I made the setup myself to make things go smoother when I install windows and just for the fun of it
