Restore from Other File Systems

With the vPower technology, Veeam extends IFLR to any file system, not just Microsoft Windows FAT, NTFS, ReFS and file systems supported by the multi-OS File-Level Restore wizard.

To restore files and folders from file systems not supported by file-level restore wizards, you must perform the following actions:

Use Instant VM Recovery to publish the VM from the backup file on the ESXi host in the virtual infrastructure. Do not start the recovered VM.
Mount the disks of the restored VM to any VM that can read the file system of the original VM.
Restore files or folders using native file management tools. Alternatively, you can mount the VM disks to a Microsoft Windows VM and use file management tools such as Portlock Explorer.
