Chapter 7: ImageExplorer68
If you selected an image file that was created with an older version of Drive Image or
ImageExplorer, a progress bar displays while the ImageExplorer expands the image
index. To speed up the process with older image files, refer to “Working with Images
from Previous Versions of Drive Image” on page 68.

Click To this destination, then specify the location where you want to save the
restored files. Click the browse button to navigate to the location you want.
You can also click Restore to original path if you want to restore the folders or files
to their original location. If the original location does not include a drive letter
(because the partition was hidden when you imaged it), you must enter a drive letter
for the partition before you can restore it.

Working with Images from Previous Versions of Drive Image
If you restore files from an image that was created with Drive Image or Drive Image File
Editor 3.0 or earlier, you can do one of the following to speed up the process. Note that
these procedures are optional.
• Ensure that the index file (*.PQX) for the image is saved in the same directory where
the image is saved. If ImageExplorer finds the index file in the same directory, it can
use the index file instead of recreating it during the restore.
• If you do not have an index file for the image, you can use ImageExplorer to copy the
image into a new ImageExplorer image.
Verifying Image Files
Use Verify Image to determine whether an image file is valid or corrupt. ImageExplorer
will check to see that all of the files in the image are available for you to open, the internal
data structures in the image file match the data that is available, and the image file can be
uncompressed and will create the expected amount of data.
This feature is useful if you have added partitions to an image and want to verify the
integrity of the image.
