Archiving

Daemon Tools 3.47

Daemon Tools 3.47 is the last version that works on Windows 9x/ME and allows you to mount virtual CD drives on those operating systems. In order to install it you might need to update your Windows Installer, which you can download in the Updates section.

USB Floppy Emulator 1.40i

This is the sofware used to manage virtual floppies using the Gotek Floppy Emulator. I use it on Windows 10 x64 but there's no reason to think it wouldn't work on Windows XP or newer.
