DiskFlashback
A Windows package to use Floppy Disk Images Files & Non-PC Real Floppy Disks in Windows, directly.
Why?
Most of the USB floppy drives are terrible. And modifying a drive for DrawBridge removes the IBM/PC floppy disk support in Windows.
Plus I was getting annoyed having to boot WinUAE just to copy a file to an ADF (or disk).
So I decided to build this - And all the silly playground arguments from childhood now behind us I gave a little love to the Atari ST too (untested, I don't have one!)...
I'd been planning on building this since 2017, and now, with a simple double-click I can now access the contents of these disk image files directly!
See the Getting Started Guide! for more details!
