THIS IS A WINDOWS exportVMs.cmd SCRIPT, BUT CAN BE EASILY ADAPTED TO WORK UNDER LINUX: you will have to make an entry for every vm. PRINCIPLE: 1. SAVE STATE (PAUSE VM) 2. CLONE TO BACKUP DIRECTORY (preferable on a NAS […]
YES! YOU CAN BACKUP ALL YOUR DRIVERS! but you need to copy ALL files of your C:WINDOWS directory. USE ACRONIS OR GPARTED OR ANYTHING THAT BACKUP YOUR WINDOWS DIRECTORY! Windows itself will not give you access to all the files. […]
