How Do I Backup A BootCamp VM?

[The Duelist]

Hi All

I Currently Have A My BootCamp XP SP3 VM Working Without Issue.

As Part Of My Preparations To Trial An 'Upgrade' To PD4,
I Would Like To Backup Whatever Is Needed,
So That I Can Restore Back To PD3,
If I Need to ;-)

What Do I Need To Backup,
The Whole BootCamp Partition (32GB FAT32)?

Any Advice Appreciated
TIA

Hello,

yes, you would need to backup the Boot Camp partition, and the .pvs file, just in case. Be aware that this might require you to reactivate Windows after the upgrade.

Backup up your Bootcamp

Hi,

This is not difficult; go to Disk Utility; create an image of your Bootcamp partition.
You can park it where you want; be sure to place it on an external disk maybe!
