Hello,

Since I want to copy some of my games to a HDD I don't want to waste space with Dummy files.
Is there a way to reduce the size of a dummy file directly in the ISO with Winiso or Isobuster without extracting the files first?
Or do I really need to extract all files, replace the dummy and create an ISO again to transfer it to the HDD?

Make a 0 byte dummy on your desktop with the same name as the dummy in the iso. Open up the iso with Apache, and highlight the dummy file, choosing to 'Update File', then browse to your 0 byte dummy.
Apache will save your iso with the new smaller dummy. No file extraction required.
