    Virtual Disk Image Error


    After my VirtualBox VM of Windows 7 became inaccessible, I deleted it and replaced it with another virtual machine, but used the same virtual disk image as the old one. However, after I deleted the old one, I realized that my virtual disk image was removed along with the virtual machine. I don't want to make a new image because I had a lot of stuff installed on the old disk image and I don't want to start over again. Is there any way I can recover my virtual disk image?

    :)

    Virtual Disk service is unavailable (0x8078009C).

    Kumar, the laptop is not connected to a domain network. I tried both methods suggested and the results are the same. Method 2 returned no errors. The harddrive is not SSD. Under Windows 7, I never experienced a problem with creating a System Image nor
    any errors with the Virtual Disk Service. After Windows 10 migration, I've not been able to create a System Image nor use Disk Management (the latter returns the message "Unable to connect to Virtual Disk Service). Suggestions kindly appreciated.

    fragmented disk image

    Hi Brandon,

    VHD (Virtual Hard Disk) is a file that represents a virtual hard drive and contains what is normally found on a physical hard disk drive. You can try to mount the VHD images to extract and recover the file by following the steps below:

    • Right-click on Start Menu and select Disk Management.
    • On the Disk Management window, click Action and select
      Attach VHD.
    • Click Browse, navigate to and select the VHD file, click
      Open      , then OK.
    • You can now proceed to browse, copy and open files from the mounted VHD.

    Note: You may have to mount all VHD files to extract a single disk image file from it.

    Get back to us if you need further assistance.

    Virtual Disk Image Error

    Virtual Disk service is unavailable (0x8078009C).

    Attempted a System Image backup on newly migrated
    Windows 10 laptop. I received the following error: Virtual Disk service is unavailable (0x8078009C). I can start the service, however, I receive the same error message. Also, when I select Disk Management under the Computer Management
    window I receive the following: Unable to connect to Virtual Disk Service. Suggestions kindly appreciated... thank you.
