The current version of the program allows the user to mount archives of separate partitions
only.
There is no possibility to mount archives located on physical (unmounted) partitions or in
the bootable capsule.
Archives will only be mounted for the current session and won’t be available after the
system restart.
It is strongly recommended not to un-mount backup images with Windows Disk Manager
