I use other tools to edit/modify ISOs (UltraISO usually) so I don't require this functionality from WinRAR.

Just FYI, I deliberately uncheck ISO file whenever I install WinRAR for this very reason. If it is zipped within an archive, you should be able to extract it to a single ISO file now that WinRAR isn't configured to be associated with ISO files any longer. That's the file you should be able to open with VMWare.

You should be able to go to the original location where you downloaded the file and find it there with a different icon, probably one that looks like a CD as that's the standard ISO icon I believe.

ISO files shouldn't be associated with WinRAR and therefore should not be extracted by it to the individual files. Uncheck the box next to ISO beneath where it says Associate WinRAR with and then click OK (click Yes if prompted by User Account Control). Open WinRAR and click on Options> Settings and in the settings window click on the Integration tab. I have an idea that should fix this for you. So, is there a way to extract my Kali and not make it peices because VMware can't find the ISO image All the cases i saw online when they extract the Kali Linux file from WinRAR they get only the ISO image, no other files like in my case! Well, the problem is actually when i try to locate the ISO image with VMware it shows all the files that I extracted but not the ISO image. If you are using it for a VM (like VirtualBox or VMWare etc.) then you should be able to open the ISO directly from the VM software when it prompts you to select an ISO file/disc image/CD/DVD to use to install your chosen operating system (in this case, Linux) by browsing to its location from within the VM software and selecting the ISO file you downloaded that way the VM software will load it rather than WinRAR. not a VM (Virtual Machine)) then you should be able to burn the ISO to disc directly. If you are needing to install Linux on a live system (i.e. The trouble is that WinRAR is currently configured to have ISO files associated with it so that it (WinRAR) may open/extract them just as it does ZIP files and other archives (an ISO is technically a type of archive even though it's also what we use for disc images). I got so many files like you, while other people get only the ISO image! When i downloaded Kali Linux and then unzipped it. Josh, what did you do to solve the issue.
