Allows you to mount and export files from HFS disks (older Macs) individually. This is a back up to CCA tools disk processor (which uses this behind the scenes) or if you want to check to see if disk imaging was successful. See the documentation the BitCurator Consortium's wiki for how to use the tool. Like BitCurator Image Access, the ability to open the disk image and export a file is sufficient to determine if imaging was successful.

- In Windows, click the HxC Floppy Emulator on the desktop.
- First click load and select the image from its file location.
- Then select disk Browser to view the contents of a DOS formatted disk.
You can then use Ctrl-A to select all the files and click the "Get Files" button to extract the files to your processing folder.
Info title Note More advanced users may also try the “Track Analyzer” option, which will allow you to look at a graphical representation of the tracks and the disk as well as a hex editor view of the contents. You can select track mode, which will show the individual tracks close up or disk mode, which will show you an overall view of a disk.
- If you are running this tool to extract the files, go to the CCA tools SIP creator section to run that on the extract extracted files and the disk image (if you want to keep it).
