Making digital backups of your expensive software always is a good idea. These backups come in the form of an ISO file. The problem is how to use the backup after you have created it. The ISO file is actually a mountable file. Using a virtual drive program, you can trick your computer into thinking the ISO file is an actual disk. This works for all software, including Rosetta Stone.
