Fix the error that you don’t have permission to load the file

If you receive an Unable to mount file, you do not have permission to mount the file error when trying to mount an ISO image, please follow the suggestions below:

Check file attributes

Mount ISO file using PowerShell

Disable antivirus or security software

Reconnect the media containing the ISO file

Use third-party tools to mount ISO files

Now, let’s take a look at these in detail.

1]Check file attributes

Check the properties of the ISO file first, because if the file is sparse, you may get an error that you don't have permissions. Here’s how to do it:

Right-click on the ISO file and select Properties.

Navigate to the Details tab and check the letter next to the property.

If the letter is P, the file is sparse.

or

You can also check if the file is sparse by running a PowerShell command. Here’s how to do it:

Open elevated Windows Powershell.

Enter the following command and press Enter. This will check if the file is sparse.

(Get-Item‘PATH_TO_YOU_ISO_FILE’).属性

The file properties will now be visible.

If the file is sparse, copy it to a different folder or give it a different name. This may remove the sparse attribute and allow the file to be mounted.

2]Use PowerShell to mount the ISO file

Next, try to mount the ISO file using Powershell. To do this, run the following command in an elevated Powershell:

装载-磁盘映像-映像路径ISO文件路径

3] Temporarily disable third-party antivirus or security software

Anti-virus or security software installed on your PC may interfere with the ISO file mounting process. Disable these temporarily and see if the error is fixed.

4]Reconfigure media containing ISO files

If the ISO file is on flash media or any other removable media, try ejecting the removable media. Then, reassign the drive letter to a lower drive letter to mount the ISO image.

5]Use third-party tools to mount ISO files

Finally, if none of these suggestions help, you can try third-party ISO mounter software. This helped most users bypass this error.
