Mounting a Backup Image File

To get started, open ShadowProtect SPX.
- Click Tools > Image Chain Browser
- From the Destination drop down, select the destination you want to restore from.
Note: If the image you need to mount is not shown, you can click Local Folder and then browse to navigate to where the images are stored. - Select the image you would like to mount. You can select older images to restore data from a prior date.
- Once you've highlighted the image you wish to mount, click the Mount Image button the bottom right.
Note: You might be prompted to enter your password to mount the image.
- In the next window, you are able to select which drive letter to mount the image to. You also have the option to mount the image as a sub-folder mount point. Click OK to mount the image.
- Once the image is mounted, you will be able to access the files within the image like normal and restore what you wish.
- When you are finished and ready to dismount the image, click the
Mounted Images button at the top of the main screen.
- Click Dismount beside your mounted image.
