Questions and answers

Q: Why is the capacity of a virtual drive just 32GB? Can I expand it?

A:32GB is the default value that we set. If you want it larger, a command line as 'WinMount.exe filename.wmt -sectors:0x8000000'(See also Guide Section to know all details about all command lines) should be employed to satisfy your purpose. Howerver, in most cases, 32GB is far eough for daily use.

Q: Is there any way that I can be informed a newer version is released without needing check your website?

A: Yes. Our software will automatically check if there is newer version available on each time you lauch it. In addition, We highly recommend that you subscribe to our mailinglist. To do this, you need send us an email titled as "subscribe" at here winmount_en-request@winmount.com
The following is an example:
To: winmount_en-request@winmount.com

Our mailinglist is a clean(AD-free) newsletter just trying to tell our users the latest important updates for Winmount, therefore, it must not be treated as spam, or you can't see it because which will be filtered by your email anti-spam system.

Q: What special features does WinMount offer?

A: WinMount is trying to realize compatibly decompressing all types of frequently used archiving formats so that users don't need to install many other applications far less powerful to unpack archives any more.In addition, Winmount is capable of reading and writing a virtual drive onto which an image file is mounted, but all changes took place on the virtual drive will not be written back to the image file, therefore, all original files included in the image can be definitely secured.

Q: What's the difference between trial and registered versions?

A: We wouldn't set any functional limitations in trial version at the moment since the software's still in beta. We want every user to give it a taste in every aspect, therefore, there is no functional difference between the two versions except that a notification window will pop up when you're trying to mount files with a trial version.

Q: Are the mounted files writable?

A: Yes. Mounted files can be accessed directly, you can edit, save or even create new stuff, but all changes will be lost once you unmount the drive or restart your computer. The intention behind this design is to keep your computer virus-free.

Q: How is WinMount encrypted?

A: WinMount is encrypted by "Distorted Transformation Encryption" which is a brand new, fabulous encryption method invented by our company. Anyone who wants to crack, reverse engineer or analyze our software will end up in extremely painful failure. If you want further detail information about this encryption technique, contact us at here support@winmount.com and here me@liutaotao.com.
