Mounting ISO files with powershell

Mounting ISO files with powershell

You can mount ISO files easily with powershell's Mount-DiskImage cmdlet.
	Mount-DiskImage FULL_PATH_TO_ISO_FILE

FULL_PATH_TO_ISO_FILE SHOULD BE THE FULL PATH. NO RELATIVE PATHS WORK HERE.
Meaning,

	Mount-DiskImage .\randomisofile.iso

Wont work. But dont fret. We've got ways around that.

	Mount-DiskImage $pwd\randomisofile.iso

$pwd is the variable in powershell that holds the current working directory.


Dont forget to add quotes when necessary:
	Mount-DiskImage "$pwd\Some Iso File With Spaces In It's name.iso"


Unmounting the files:

Right now, on my machine which has Win8 Installed, I can just right click the drive  and Select Eject to Unmount it.

With powershell, I can do this to dismount it:

	Get-Volume DRIVE_LETTER|Get-DiskImage|Dismount-DiskImage

DRIVE_LETTER should be just a letter or a bunch of letters. "CDEF"
