Application seeks CD-ROM but none on my laptop. How to workaround?

Is there a way to make an application think a USB stick or directory is
a cdrom drive?

I don't have a CD-ROM drive in my laptop and there's an application
that keeps looking for it and complains it can't find it. I have plenty
of disk space, however. I would like the application to look in a
specific file folder for whatever it needs instead of looking for the
CD-ROM.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jose,

I would use Daemon Tools to create a virtual drive.
