An .iso file is a disc image file, presumably DVD at 2GB.

Use the disc burning software that came with Windows to burn the .iso image to disc, then explore the DVD to look for .exe files.

If your disc burning software does not give you this option, there are free software utilities available.

Some of these may also give you the option to open the .iso file as a virtual DVD to look for any .exe files you want without burning to disc.

EDIT: a compression tool like ZipGenius will also let you open the .iso image without burning it to disc:
