    Any free image software that will


    Hello all. Is there any free image solution that will allow me to browse the image backup file that I take? Clonezilla is great, but as far as I know, does not offer a way to browse and restore specific files from the image.

    I have a customer that is replacing some Windows XP machines. They do not really need the data, so I would like to create an image of their Operating System, and have the ability to restore files from it.

    Acronis would be great for this, but it's not a free application.

    Then again XXclone may be to your liking.

    I will see if XXClone has this ability, thank you. I am looking for free, so Acronis would not be applicable here.

    I agree. One click and it mounts the image as a drive and you use windows explorer to work with it.

    As far as Acronis goes, you may not need to buy it.
    Check if the HD manufacturers offer a free version of Acronis, if you would prefer using it.
    Although the free version is a stripped version, it should be able to Image the HD, and recover selected files from the image.



    Or as suggested, give Macrium a shot.

    As stated Macrium allows for easy browsing of images.
    Windows inbuilt imaging also allows you to do the same. It takes a few more clicks- you attached the image in Disk Management and browse/extract files if you want.
