Restore VHD File Backup in Windows 7



If you have made a backup using Windows 7 Backup option where the backup is a large dump of VHD file and unable to recover the back up please follow the methods explained below. I've collected a handful of handy links which should serve your purpose:

Case #1: How to restore VHD file backup?

Answer:

The reason why you’ve a VHD file is because you’ve created a system image backup. A system image includes Windows and your system settings, programs, and files. You can use a system image to restore the contents of your computer if your hard drive or computer ever stops working. When you restore your computer from a system image, it is a complete restoration; you can't choose individual items to restore, and all of your current programs, system settings, and files are replaced.

You wouldn’t be able to restore VHD files using backup and restore center. You can mount the image by following the steps below.

Method 1: Steps to mount VHD files in Windows 7

a.    Open Start Menu, right-click on Computer and click Manage.

b.    Click on Disk Management.

c.    Click Action -> Attach VHD and specify the external hard disk location on your computer.

Creating Virtual Host on Xampp 1.8.1

Firstly, please follow all the steps mentioned in this post of mine: http://soluzione08.blogspot.in/2012/02/creating-virtual-hosts-on-apache.html and then add this line 'Require all granted' as below for all your virtual host setup.The changes should be made to the file 'httpd-vhosts.conf'

<Directory "c:/vhosts/sandbox.wp">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Require all granted
  </Directory>

Note: The above code is an example for a Name-based Virtual Host. For and IP-based Virtual Host you will have to replace the Name with the IP which usually is "127.0.0.1" on a localhost.
