Vdisk (vhd) to physical

  • 772

I have a VHD file that was created by a citrix provisioning server. It is specific to a computer model. I was wanting to transfer the vhd onto the physical disk. Can anyone think of a way to do this? I then want to be able to boot off the physical hard disk like it was before I converted it to vdisk (vhd) It is a windows 7 vhd. Thanks

windows-7 vhd citrix

  2. There are various P-to-V and V-to-P utilities on the market. There is more than likely one that can convert a VHD back onto a physical drive.

    Outside of that route, you can also setup a VM to mount the VHD along side the RAW physical disk. You can then transfer the VHD to the physical drive with any various partition utility, backup application, etc.
