Daemon Tools (styled DAEMON Tools by its creators) is a disk image emulator for Microsoft Windows that mounts images of DVD and CD media on virtual drives, and is known for supporting a variety of different disk image formats. The program is able to defeat most copy protection schemes such as SafeDisc and SecuROM.

Daemon Tools was originally a furtherance in the development of another program, Generic SafeDisc emulator, and incorporated all of its features. It is currently being developed and distributed by Daemon's Home and is free for non-commercial purposes but the "free" version comes with the option to install an advertisment system from WhenU, which is ticked by default. Daemon Tools is known colloquially as D-Tools or just DTools. Version 3.47 is Adware-free, while later versions are not.
