URecover: Recover files from a Windows Image Backup, Snapshot, or VHD

URecover is the only software utility that can recover files from a Windows Vista^® Complete PC Backup or a Windows 7 System Image Backup without re-installing the whole computer. It can also recover files from a previous-version disk snapshot or a Virtual Hard Disk (VHD).

Don't Get Bitten

Only URecover can rescue you from a difficult dilemma: Your computer failed so you decide to re-install Windows. But you need to recover your critical files from the old image backup on DVD. What do you do? Do you waste hours of downtime trying to reload the entire old operating system, and then pray that it boots so you can recover the files?

Mount a Complete PC Backup as a Disk Letter

URecover can mount a Complete PC Backup (Vista) or Windows System Image Backup (Windows 7) as a disk letter. URecover reads and expands the DVD to a temporary folder on your computer. If you made the backup to the network or to another hard disk, URecover mounts it directly.

You can then browse through the backed-up files any way you want. For example you can use Windows Search to scan for the files you need. You can even keep the disk letter mounted permanently as a read-only resource.

Mount a Shadow Copy as a Disk Letter

URecover can a mount a snapshot of your disk from a previous point in time. This is called a “Shadow Copy” or “Previous Version” snapshot. Without URecover you are limited to viewing the snapshot only from within Windows Explorer – you cannot access your files in the snapshot any other way.

With URecover you can mount the snapshot as a drive letter. You can access the drive any way you want. You can even share the drive with other users on the network!

Mount a VHD file as a Disk Letter

URecover can mount a Virtual Hard Disk (.VHD) file as a drive letter. (A VHD is a file that contains a virtual machine image that boots inside of Virtual PC or Hyper-V.) You can use URecover to read or write to the VHD file without booting or installing a virtual machine.
