Access to Windows event logs in a backup .tib file possible?

Thread needs solution

Hello,

I have several Win7 backups and would need to access the event log in these backups.

Of course I can restore the backups and use the event viewer and search for the information I need. But this is quite cumbersome.

So my question would be:

Is there any chance to access the eventlog in the .tib file ?

I assume windows is storing these logs in some files ..but in which files, and how to read them ? (the logs are not exported up to now)...

thanks and regards

Hermann,

This is possible by either mounting or exploring the Acronis backup image file (.TIB) in Windows Explorer and navigating to the location where the Event logs are stored:  C:\Windows\System32\Winevt\Logs - see attached image.

You can then double-click on any of the event logs shown and this will open it in the Windows Event Log Viewer.

thanks a lot!

Espcially the location of the log files was something I have not found in the past!

This solved my problem!
