      I have delta backups that are excessive in size and I wish to compare two using WinMerge
      https://winmerge.org/

      How can I restore only the disks from two delta backups so they can be attached to an existing VM?

          @McHenry you can select the SR on each disk,, and ignore the disks you don't need

          then you can attach the disks to any other VM

              This is not a backup but a replication 🙂
