I have a .vhd virtual hard disk. I need to convert it to .img disk image. How can I do it? I have Windows 7 and VirtualBox at my disposal, can those tools help?

Convert .vhd to .img on windows?

You can go with VirtualBox by converting your image using the CLI's --format raw argument:
VBoxManage clonehd disk.vdi disk.img --format raw
As long as VirtualBox can read the input disk image, you should be good to go.

Excuse this newbie user here: where do I insert this argument line? – Fabián – 2017-01-25T20:17:31.200
Nevermind I found it out. VBoxManage is an .exe, so I just need to enter the VirtualBox folder, and execute that line via Windows's cmd. Although...Can this be done viceversa (img > vhd)? – Fabián – 2017-01-25T20:24:05.417
Nevermind, it can be done. By executing "VBoxManage clonehd" it'll say the different possible formats. – Fabián – 2017-01-26T00:00:12.547
