Use existing HDD/SSD in Hyper-V | No Reinstall | Recover and more!
Have a hard drive you need access to the operating system inside? Can't boot the device? Load it up into a VM and run programs, and everything else as normal inside your existing environment, with the drive's existing Windows or another operating system, install. No install required. Hyper-V really makes this seamless.
