How to recover from a corrupted VHD file?

 

There is a tool that can recover logical problems in the VHD structure?

A friend called me and told me that his VS R2 Enterprise with 4 VMs suffered a power falure and after that, one of the VMs does not startup anymore. The erros is the same as using VHDMOUNT, something similar: "VHD file could not be mounted"

There is a CHKDSK for VHD files?

How to "rebuild" a corrupetd VHD file? How to analyze logical structure of a offline VHD file?

I would first start out by making a copy of the VHD prior to troubleshooting it.  You should also confirm that there are not any snapshots.

You could try mounting it in the parent partition and repairing it with checkdisk.

Here is a tool for fixing VHDs which snapshot / extend issues, but might not be relevant here:

You can try to use qemu manager free and open. 1) first copy the original 2) convert VHd to raw with bin extension. Qemu-img convert ..... Etc Install and use virtualbox Vboxmanage to convert bin in VHd format. Then try to see if the VHd mount or boot. Bye Renato

I also would like to suggest another application which I have used recently for doing VHD recovery. Last, I lost almost everything on my lappy due to hard drive crash issue. I backup my data in .vhd file but due to somehow the backup file unable to show me any data. Finally, I tried Hyper-V data recovery tool that had been recommended by my friend. The tool have easy-to-operate GUI techniques so that even a novice use can also run this application for repairing VHD file corruption or data inaccessible problem without any hassle. It also recovered those files which I had deleted earlier.

VHD files use a FAT structures as a means of managing the virtual drive. I would save the VHD and load the image in R-studio or Recover it all data recovery software and recover the data.
