after expanding the fixed vhd,

I could not mount the drive via disk manager action so I tried the vhdmount form virstual server2005 which I used in the past on the vhd in batch files. I got the foolowing message

The Virtual Hard Disk is successfully plugged in as a virtual disk device. However, not all the volumes on the disk were successfully mounted. Use Disk Manager to mount the volumes.

what can I do to dix the problem?

Hello fs-ab,

It seems your issue is not related to this forum. I'll move your case to "where is the forum for" so that you can get some advice.

Regards,

I am not sure how you get virtual server 2005 to run, but if you have a hyper-v vhd file, you can ask at http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/home?forum=winserverhyperv.

I'm not using virtualization but Windows 8 itself has the capbility treat vhd file as voulme and mounting a vhd in the disk mgmt.msc.I do mount such vhd file for viewing and occaisonly add content to it
