Windows Convert Folder to Floppy IMG?

I have a folder on my computer whose contents contain a program that originated from a floppy. The Windows computer I am currently running does not have a floppy drive.

Is there a program which can convert the contents of a given folder to a floppy IMG or IMA file? All of the programs that I see require the files to originate from a floppy before it will package them into a IMG file.

This file should not be bootable.

Thank you for your time.

of course, there are software for virtual cd drives. I don't know about whether virtual cd drives are writable, I suppose they are, and virtual floppy drives probably are writable. You'll then have an A:> another option is to get an external usb floppy drive – barlop – 2012-10-06T08:51:46.477

You can try using Virtaul Floppy Drive.

However, you will need some efforts to install it on Windows 7 SP1 x64.

EDIT: It does not work on x64 machines since the driver is meant only for 32 bit machines.

Use WinImage (32/64-bit versions available, portable version as well, works fine on Win7 and probably Win8 too).

The 64-bit download on that site was flagged by Chrome as containing a virus. – Enno – 2018-02-20T19:44:58.527
