2.4.6 Recovering files from a virtual machine backup

This procedure enables you to recover files and folders from a backup of a virtual machine without
recovering the virtual machine itself.

The files and folders that you select will be available for download as a .zip file.

You can recover files from volumes with the following file systems: FAT, FAT32, NTFS, Ext2, Ext3, and
Ext4. Regardless of the file system, you cannot recover files from volumes that are managed by Linux
Logical Volume Manager (LVM), also known as logical volumes; and from multiple-disk (MD) devices,
also known as Linux Software RAID.

1. Open the organization tab or the Backup storage tab.
2. Select the virtual machine whose files you want to recover, and then click Recover files.
3. In Recovery point, select the date and time that you want to recover the files to.
