Restoring Guest OS Files

Veeam Backup & Replication allows you to recover individual guest OS files and folders. You can restore files and folders directly from a backup. This makes the restore process fast and does not require additional storage resources.

Veeam Backup & Replication supports recovering files for the following file systems:

• Microsoft Windows file systems (FAT, NTFS and ReFS)
• File systems of Linux-based OSes
• Other file systems

In this guide, we omit restoring files from other file systems. This is an advanced scenario that requires additional actions. For details, see the Restore from Other File Systems section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
