    2nd XP mode as test system


    Can you clone XP mode and use it to test software etc and then delete it when done leaving your original XP mode intact and unchanged?

    I previous deleted a virtual machine which was a copy of the original WinXP mode before I found these tutorials. Now my link to WinXP mode form the start mode doesn't work. I have to start by going to the virtual machine and picking the WinXP mode. How do I edit the shortcut on the start menu as I'm guessing that pointing to the deleted files. Sorry for such a basic question.
