DAA files are associated with PowerISO software application. What kind of data do DAA files store? Files with DAA extension contain disk images created using PowerISO. The tool offers built-in functions to compress, encrypt, and password-protect the data.
CIF is a disk image file created with Roxio Creator tool. CIF file stores not only the copy of a CD, but also information about the disk structure, file organization, and sectors not visible to the user (for example, master boot record sector, which stores disk partition table).
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the DAA file after converting to CIF may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from DAA to CIF to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting DAA to CIF does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in DAA format, properly converted to a CIF file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file DAA the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of DAA file to other than CIF. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your DAA file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to CIF on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the DAA file in its original format (without conversion to CIF file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
