Exploring a mounted recovery point using the Local Mount
Utility
Exploring a recovery point opens the backed up data in a Windows Explorer window, and lets you search the
volumes and folders for the item or items you want to recover.
You can then recover items by copying them to your preferred location using a file manager such as Windows
Explorer (or programmatically using Windows APIs). Complete the following procedure to explore a currently
mounted recovery point.
NOTE:
This procedure is not necessary if you are exploring a recovery point immediately after mounting
it, as the folder containing the recovery point automatically opens upon completion of the mounting
procedure.
1. From the Local Mount Utility user interface, click Active mounts.
The Active Mounts window opens and displays all mounted recovery points.
2. Expand the navigation tree to reveal the recovery points mounted for each machine and their volumes.
3. Click Explore next to the volume you want to explore.
