Performing Hyper-V file-level recovery

You can restore files to the original VM or to an alternate machine (virtual or physical) running the same operating system as the original VM. You can use the procedures in this section to restore from local and replicated backups. The procedures are the same for clustered and non-clustered VMs. For a description of the different options, see Restoring files from Hyper-V backups.
