You can only run programs from within a mapped recovery point that do not
rely on registry values, COM interfaces, dynamic link libraries (DLLs), or other
similar dependencies.
You can set up a mounted drive as a shared drive. Users on a network can connect
to the shared drive and restore files and folders from the recovery point.
You can mount one or more recovery points at a time. The drives remain mounted
until you unmount them, or you restart the computer. Mounted drives do not take
up extra hard-disk space.
All security on the NTFS volumes remains intact when they are mounted.
You do not need to mount a drive to restore the files or folders within a recovery
point.
Note:
Any data that is written to a mounted recovery point is lost when the
recovery point is unmounted. This data includes any data that is being created,
edited, or deleted at the time.

When you explore a recovery point, Norton Ghost mounts the recovery point as
a drive letter and opens it in Windows Explorer.
For each drive that is included in the recovery point, a new mounted drive letter
is created. For example, if your recovery point contains backups of drives C and
D, two newly mounted drives appear (for example, E and F). The mounted drives
include the original drive labels of the drives that were backed up.
