Only at 1 drive i have this problem. Some iso's mount and some won't. Im getting this message. Its in Dutch:

controleer of het bestand zich bevindt in een ntfs-volume en niet in een comprimeerde map of volume iso file windows 10

If I copy the file to an other drive it just mount.
The iso's files have worked before on that drive. Suddenly only a few i can mount.

Just taking a wild guess but are these ISOs on a torrent drive? Windows has this odd bug where you have to copy the ISO file before it will be willing to mount it if it's been download by torrents. Just moving it on the same drive won't fix it but making a new copy does. Moving to a different drive is similar to copying which may be why that works.

Hmm very odd indeed. You sure the drive is set to NTFS, right? I know it's unlikely but just to be sure.

Maybe if you go into properties and check the attributes?

Maybe something weird like this?

That method worked. only when i delete the original one. If i just copying over the orginal it won't change the attributes. But wat i don't understand is how does it come that the attributes are changed the iso's had worked before.

Yeah that's exactly what I meant . Copying fixes it - I mostly get it from torrent software.

Did you go to the Details? Does it show a P in the attributes? I think the attribute gets lost when copying the file elsewhere.

Yes if i copy it somewhere else the p attribute is gone.
