Recovering VBK files for veeam
PLEASE tell me there is a way to recover this. Because I need these files to restore a bacup. Photorec is detecting all VIB, but I NEED the VBK files.

Re: Recovering VBK files for veeam
Nobody will be able to provide you with answers within 16 minutes.
There is no around the clock support with at least three people working 8-hour-shifts to provide you with your urgent information needs.
I don't get a response in 16 minutes even if I let the boss of my department upgrade any support request of me to the highest level.
You are expecting too much.
You lost 16 minutes by not using the search function of the forum.
For really urgent matters please contact Kroll Ontrack, Attingo and the like.
Thank you.

Re: Recovering VBK files for veeam
Hello,
First of all, thanks everybody who tries to help me.
I have a harddisk with veeam backup copies and these copies were deleted. So I want to use photorec to try to recover the files.
As everybody who know how Veeam backup works, we have two types of files, *.vmb (info of the backup) and *.vbk (the file with the full backup)
It seems that photorec recover *.vmb files but it is not the "important" file to restore. The file I want to restore is a *.vbk file.
But it seems *.vbk file is not on the list of files photorec can restore. I searched the forums and Internet but with no success.
So the question is:
Someone know if *.vbk can be restored wirh photorec?
If the answer is yes, how can I add *.vbk to the program to restore these files?
Thanks a lot for the help
Best Regards
