Burning images. Windows7 finally presents a nice function which other OS's included for a long time, the ability to burn ISO images to Compact disks and Digital video disks. Moreover it could not be any less complicated for you to utilise. Simply double click on the actual ISO image, select your drive that has the blank disc, click on Burn and watch while your disc is made.
Generate and mount VHD files. Microsoft's Virtual PC creates the virtual machine hard drives in VHD files, and Windows 7 will now mount these directly so individuals would gain access to the files within their host system. Click Start, input diskmgmt.msc and click Enter, next click on Action - Attach VHD and simply pick the file you'd like to be able to mount. The item is going to after that appear just as a new virtual drive in Explorer and also can easily be accessed, copied to and written to, exactly akin to every other drive.
Just click Action - Create VHD and then you can then create a completely new virtual drive for yourself (right-click the virtual drive, select Initialise Disk, and then after it is setup, right-click the unallocated space then select New Simple Volume to set up this). Once more, you'll end up with another virtual drive where it behaves exactly like every other, whereby you can potentially move around files, install programs, experiment with partitioning software programs or do exactly what you wish.
However it's indeed this particular VHD file found on your actual hard-drive which you will be able to very easily back up or even share with other people. Right-click the drive (that's that left-hand label which reads "Disk 3" for e.g.) and select Detach VHD to remove it.
The command line 'DISKPART' utility has also been modified with tools to remove a VHD file, plus an Expand command for you to expand your virtual disk's maximum size. You shouldn't mess around with this command unless you fully understand precisely what you could be executing however - it's way too simple to delete your virtual disk.
