Windows 10: How to unblock a vhdx created by a different computer on Windows 11.

I backed up my old computer drive d: by creating a vhdx. When i try to mount on my new computer, it blocks mounting. I try to check the unblock box, but it then says it can't find the file. The file is located on a NAS smb share. The old computer is turned off. What can i do to mount it?

How to install vhdx image onto win 10 new computer


I tried to locate my system volume but it wasn't listed. This might be because my hard drive is going bad *Shock

So at this point I'll probably reinstall Windows to another drive.

Is there a way to take my Windows 10 VHDX file and apply it to another drive so that drive will boot?

Note: The VHDX I'm referring to was created using Disk2VHD. Is that all I needed to do to create a bootable VHDX, or were there more steps involved? This is my first time trying this so please forgive my ignorance *Huh

Thanks for the tip but it's been a long time since I made the script and I don't remember much.

I'd like to check everything with you.

I read this tutorial to create the VHDX Create and Set Up New VHD or VHDX File in Windows 10. and this Problem creating GPT VHD automatically even if I haven't understood much.

For the installation of windows on the vhd I had found a tutorial but now I can't find it.

Can you help me find the remaining tutorials?

Do you know if there is a script already ready?

In the meantime, I fix the script a little (which is not finished) and place it as soon as it is done.

This is the steps in the script

1. backup bcd
2. create vhdx
3. apply windows image to vhdx (install?)
4. add entry in bcd
5. restore bcd
