| Norton Ghost Disk Drive Image Format | Symantec | Backup Files |
The V2I file extension stands for Norton Ghost Virtual Volume Image, a file format developed by software company Symantec. This type of virtual disk image allows users to store data in a unique partition that can be read and used by other computers unable to connect directly with the host machine. It is often used to transfer large amounts of data quickly between various systems. The partition is made up of one or more files which are stored inside the outer container.
Technical Details
The .V2I files are created using either Symantec Ghost or Norton Ghost software. This type of virtual disk image is able to store data inside a virtual disk image, much like other types of disk images such as .ISO, .IMG, and .BIN. It supports features such as compression, checksums, mirroring, incremental backups, authentication, and encryption. The compression used in the V2I format allows the file size to be reduced significantly while maintaining the integrity of the data.
The V2I file format is widely used, especially in the IT industry for system imaging and backup purposes. It can also be used to store programs, operating system upgrades, or even entire operating systems. Additionally, its virtual nature makes it very useful for large-scale network deployments and cloud infrastructures.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .V2I) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .V2I extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .V2I file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .V2I extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .V2I extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .V2I file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .V2I file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .V2I file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .V2I file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .V2I file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
