title: How can i open .vhdx using windows 7?
body: <p>I have Windows 7 running on my machine, and other hand I have virtual hard disk file(.vhdx), which is creates using Windows 8. So as I  know found, </p>
  
  <p>Hyper-V isn't available on Windows 7 client SKUs, like Enterprise. It's only available on Windows Server 2008 x64 (some SKUs), Windows Server 2008 R2 (most SKUs), Windows 8 Professional x64, Windows 8 Enterprise x64, and Windows Server 2012 (again, most SKUs).
  You've just installed the management tools which allow you to manage a remote instance of Hyper-V.</p>
  
  <p>Is this correct ? If yes then is there any way i can open this .Vhdx in any other Softwares on Windows7 . Or how can I use it ?</p>
  
  <p>I found below blog on "How to Restore VHD File backup" but looking for alternative way?
