Files with the .ISO extension contain optical disc images in an uncompressed form. A singular image with all files and disc’s structure of catalogues is stored in a single file, sector by sector – it contains file system of the optical drive.
Files with GCD extensions store disc images created using disc authoring software Prassi. What is a disc image? Backup copies store only digital data. Disc images however contain the whole, exact physical structure of cloned disc. Created disc image is identical to the original CD or DVD copy.
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 ISO file after converting to GCD may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from ISO to GCD 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 ISO to GCD does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in ISO format, properly converted to a GCD file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file ISO the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of ISO file to other than GCD. 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 ISO file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to GCD 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 ISO file in its original format (without conversion to GCD file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
