Disk Files |
| File Description |
Disk image used to mount a file system like a disk drive (like an external hard drive), or an optical disc (like as a CD or DVD); stored on the hard drive and is recognized as a hard disk or disc when mounted by the computer.
IMG files were used by Mac OS 9 and earlier versions of the Mac OS; they have been replaced in Mac OS X by the newer .DMG disk image format.
NOTE: In some cases, renaming an IMG file's extension from ".img" to ".iso" allows other programs to open the file. |
