ISO Files Are Being Classified As Text Files Under Kubuntu 17.10

  • 772

The ISO files that I have are not being detected properly by my Kubuntu system.

Some of them are getting detected as "Raw CD Image" but others getting classified as "Text Document" or "Windows Executable Program".

Is there any way to fix this classification problem?

  1. If you really are sure that those are iso files, and you know where you got them from, mount them and check out for errors.

    sudo mkdir /media/iso0

    sudo mkdir /media/iso1

    sudo mount -o loop path/to/iso/file/YOUR_ISO_FILE0.ISO /media/iso0

    sudo mount -o loop path/to/iso/file/YOUR_ISO_FILE1.ISO /media/iso1

    if you got no errors then those are iso files, check what's inside them in the folder /media/iso0 and /media/iso1

    if there are errors, Kubuntu is right.
