You pick a job from a grid of big buttons — burn a disc, copy one, turn files into an image, check an image for errors — or run the same job from the command line. The current release (0.2.0) is the complete disc-image toolkit: create, browse, extract, edit and convert images, mount them, and check them against known-good hash lists. Disc burning, audio and USB writing follow on the [roadmap](#roadmap). Nothing in IsoFoundry needs the internet, and it never sends data anywhere. +IsoFoundry is a single free Windows program for working with CDs, DVDs, Blu-rays, disc image files (like `.iso`) and bootable USB drives. You pick a job from a grid of big buttons — burn a disc, copy one, turn files into an image, check an image for errors — or run the same job from the command line. The current release (1.0.0) covers disc-image tools (create, browse, extract, edit, convert, mount, checksum and verify against known-good hash lists), bootable USB, audio conversion, disc burning, ripping and copying, and spanning backup. Disc, USB and audio hardware paths are proven against simulated drives and disk-image files, and stay **Unverified** on real hardware until field reports arrive (see [Status](#status)). Nothing in IsoFoundry needs the internet, and it never sends data anywhere. ## Status -- **0.2.0 (released)** — the complete M1 image toolkit (create, browse, extract, edit, convert, mount, checksum, verify): the task grid opens working windows for the five image tasks, and the same jobs run from the command line. The task windows open and render correctly on a real desktop (checked from the owner's captures, 2026-11-07); a full job run in each window is still to be confirmed. -- **0.5.0** — M4 disc burning plus M5 ripping and copying, through the `if-drive` layer (IMAPI2 burning, MMC/SPTI raw reading): burn image/files/MP3/video, erase, drive info with the disc's table of contents, disc → image with dump reports, disc → disc, secure audio ripping with AccurateRip checksums, audio CD burning, surface/quality scans and recovery from damaged discs — in task windows and from the command line. Every flow also runs against a built-in simulated drive (`--fake`), which is these milestones' test gate; no burn or rip has run on real hardware yet, so the hardware paths are **Unverified**. -- **1.0.0** — first stable release: the complete 1.0 feature set (image tools, bootable USB, audio conversion, burning, ripping/copying, spanning backup) promoted from 0.9.0 with no feature changes. Hardware paths remain field-Unverified, as stated in the limitations. -- **0.9.0** — M6 integration and the RC pass, grouped into one release: spanning backup/restore with a catalog on every span, auto-action on disc insert, shell completion scripts, Explorer verbs, an opt-in update check, MusicBrainz CD lookup, and completion actions (sound, notification, shutdown). Also fixes the M5 tasks showing as "planned" in the grid. -- **0.4.0** — M2 USB and M3 audio together (0.3.0 was never released separately): Create bootable USB and Install Windows to USB (`usb`, `windows-to-usb`; tested end-to-end against disk-image files — writing to a physical disk and booting from it are still to be confirmed on real hardware), and batch audio conversion with tags carried across and ReplayGain measurement. MP3 needs `libmp3lame.dll` at runtime; AAC uses Windows Media Foundation; both encode paths are **Unverified** on real hardware. -- **0.1.0** — the M0 shell: main window, command line and elevated helper. -- **Planned** — disc copying and ripping (0.6.0), integration extras (0.7.0). See the [roadmap](#roadmap). +**1.0.0 (2026-11-08)** is the first stable release. Hardware paths stay **Unverified** until real-drive reports arrive; see [docs/LIMITATIONS.md](docs/LIMITATIONS.md) and [AUDIT.md](AUDIT.md). + +- **1.0.0** — the 0.9.0 feature set promoted with no feature changes: image tools, bootable USB, audio conversion, burning, ripping/copying, spanning backup. +- **0.9.0** — M6 integration plus the RC pass: spanning backup/restore with a catalog on every span, auto-action on disc insert, shell completion scripts, Explorer verbs, an opt-in update check, MusicBrainz CD lookup, completion actions (sound, notification, shutdown), failure drills, accessibility statement and measured budgets. +- **0.5.0** — M4 burning plus M5 ripping and copying through the `if-drive` layer (IMAPI2 burning, MMC/SPTI raw reading): burn image/files/MP3/video, erase, drive info, disc → image with dump reports, disc → disc, secure audio ripping with AccurateRip checksums, audio CD burning, surface scans and recovery.

Ripping a disc writes the image plus a dump report and a `.dat` hash file (raw rips add a CUE sheet; subchannel capture is optional). Audio rips are secure by default — every sector is read twice and the reads must agree — and land as WAV, FLAC or MP3 with AccurateRip checksums in the rip log. The surface test reads every sector once and grades the disc; recovery rips tolerantly and extracts what the filesystem still gives up, naming the files the bad sectors damaged. On the command line `--fake` reads a simulated source disc; in the windows the test drive does the same job. -## Backup and integration (in development, 0.6.0) +## Backup and integration (0.9.0) `backup FOLDER` packs a folder onto as many discs as it needs — one ISO per span, burned spans with a prompt per disc, or a rehearsal on the simulated drive — with the full catalog and a SHA-256 for every file on every span. `backup-restore` rebuilds the folder from span folders or ISOs and verifies every checksum. The same work lives in the Backup task window.
