What is P01 file?
The P01 (GEAR CD/DVD Disc Image) file extension is associated with GEAR Pro Professional Edition, a software package developed by GEAR Software. The P01 file type is used to store the exact replica of the digital data of a physical CD or DVD (compact disc), regardless of size and format. This allows an exact copy to be created of the original disc, eliminating any potential errors during the transfer process. [ ⏩ ] P01 file extension

Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from P01 to ISO?
To successfully convert the P01 file to ISO, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.P01). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case ISO (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than ISO).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. P01 to ISO. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting P01 files to ISO files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension ISO, while before this step we had the P01 file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new ISO file, or not.
