I'm looking for some tool that, given a zip/rar/tar/* archive file, mounts it as a new Windows drive. Some tools are WinMount or WinArchive, but I need one that allows me to write/create/delete files as well as read. That is, just as if it were a USB stick or something like that. The file doesn't need to be compressed, just archived is fine. Thanks a lot!

Try Pismo File Mount. Its freeware, supports zip, and ISO, but not .rar

There are a few utilties out there that can do this, but I use this one:

Win Archiver Virtual Drive

Essentially, you can mount any supported type of archive (zip, rar, 7z, iso, etc), to any # of drives you want, and they act just like regular drive.

Quite useful:

Win Archive Virtual Drive

The image above shows drive K -> O; drive K is actually a mounted RAR file for a .NET project :)
