Acronis backups (.tib files) of disks or partitions can be converted to virtual hard disks (.vhd(x) files). You can run a converted .(x) file as a virtual machine.
A virtual machine is an emulation of an operating system, meaning that you will be able to run a second operating system while you are still working in the main operating system installed on your computer. For example, you have Windows 10, but want to use an old program that cannot work in Windows 10 and only works in Windows 7, but you do not want to keep the old Window 7 just for this one program. In this case, you can create a backup of the old system, convert this backup to a .vhd(x) file, and then create a virtual machine containing your old Windows 7.
To be able to create a virtual machine, your computer should meet these prerequisites:
- you need to set up a special software - Microsoft Hyper-V. Hyper-V is included into/can be installed on:
- Windows 8/8.1 (64-bit) Pro and Enterprise
- Windows 10 (64-bit) Pro and Enterprise
- Your CPU needs to support SLAT technology.
- Virtualization must be enabled in your computer’s BIOS.

- In the next steps, review memory and network settings. You can adjust them depending on your needs. If you have limited physical RAM installed (2GB or less) clear the Use Dynamic Memory for this virtual machine check box. You can configure network settings later.
- On the Connect Virtual Hard Disk screen, select Use existing virtual hard disk and select the .vhd(x) file which your backup has been converted to.
