Overview
OSFMount allows you to mount local disk image files (bit-for-bit copies of an entire disk or disk partition) in Windows as a physical disk or a logical drive letter. You can then analyze the disk image file with PassMark OSForensics™ by using the physical disk name (eg. .PhysicalDrive1) or logical drive letter (eg. Z:).
By default, the image files are mounted as read only so that the original image files are not altered.
OSFMount supports mounting disk image files as read/write in 'write cache' mode. This stores all writes to a 'write cache' (or 'delta') file which preserves the integriy of the original disk image file.
OSFMount also supports the creation of RAM disks, basically a disk mounted into RAM. This generally has a large speed benefit over using a hard disk. As such this is useful with applications requiring high speed disk access, such a database applications, games (such as game cache files) and browsers (cache files). A second benefit is security, as the disk contents are not stored on a physical hard disk (but rather in RAM) and on system shutdown the disk contents are not persistent. At the time of writing, we believe this is the fastest RAM drive software available.
OSFMount supports mounting images of CDs in .ISO format , which can be useful when a particular CD is used often and the speed of access is important.

64-bit Windows 7 SP1, 8, 10, & Server 2008 & 2012 are supported. For 32-bit Windows, please download OSFMount v2 below.
Known issues
#1: On certain Windows systems (mostly Windows server 2016), when using OSFMount, Windows will prevent the OSFMount driver from loading. See the following page for more details, 'Why do I get the error, Error loading OSFMount Driver?'
#2: If you get an Access Denied message during install for the osfmount.sys file, or OSFmount driver is disabled error. Reboot the machine and reinstall. A previous version of the driver was likely still loaded in memory, preventing an update.

RAM Drive Benchmarks
These RAM drive benchmarks were taken on a Intel i7-8700K CPU with 32GB RAM DDR4 PC4-19207 in dual channel mode. RAM disk size was 2GB, formatted with FAT32. Typical speeds with large linear blocks are around 10,000 MBytes/sec. With smaller 4K blocks and random access plus queue depth of 1, speed is still a very respectable 1,500 MByte/sec. Benchmarks were taken with PerformanceTest V9.

v2.0.1000, 08 Mar 2018
- Compiled with Visual Studio 2017 and Driver Built using WinDDK 10. Consequence of this is that the minimum OS required is now Windows 7 SP1 and we are longer supporting older operating systems XP & Vista.
- Dramatic speed improvements for blank RAM disks. Speed improvements are a result of,
- New compiler with better code optimization
- Forcing the RAM drive to be held in physical RAM (if free space is available on initial mounting). So no swapping to disk. Making it more important than ever to make sure you have sufficient free RAM available.
- Rewrite of the device driver code to remove overheads in the handling of I/O request packets (IRPs), which read and write data from the RAM drive.

I’m thinking about upgrading to Outlook 2019 but I know we are not using the latest version of Exchange.
- Which versions of Exchange does Outlook 2019 support?
- How can I check which version I’m currently using?
- How do I configure an Exchange account in Outlook 2019?
Outlook 2019 supports the following versions of Exchange;
- Exchange 2013
- Exchange 2016
- Exchange 2019
- Exchange Online (Microsoft 365)
It will also support the next 2 versions of Exchange that will be coming out in the future.
Note: To determine your current version of Exchange from within Outlook see: Which Exchange version am I using?
It will also support the next 2 versions of Exchange that will be coming out in the future.
Does Outlook 2019 support Exchange 2010?
The short answer is; It works but it is not supported.
There (currently) aren’t any technical constraints in place to prevent this combination from working.
However, Mainstream Support for Exchange 2010 already ended on January 13, 2015. Extended Support originally was scheduled to end on January 14, 2020 but has recently been extended to October 13, 2020 to align it with the Extended Support end date of Office 2010.
That said, due to the fact that historically only 2 previous versions of Exchange are supported and the relative brief overlap since the release of Outlook 2019, the official stance of Microsoft is that using Outlook 2019 with Exchange 2010 is not supported.
Configuring an Exchange account in Outlook 2019
Configuring an Exchange account in Outlook 2019 is easy. You’ll only need to fill out your email address (if not detected automatically), press the Connect button and fill out your password when prompted;
Note: Does the account setup fail? Contact your Exchange administrator to test proper configuration of the Exchange Autodiscover service and Outlook Connectivity via the Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer.
For more information about configuring the Autodiscover service and Outlook Connectivity see: Autodiscover: Some quick methods to get it working.
