Backup support

SQL Virtual Restore works with backup files created by SQL HyperBac and SQL Backup, as well as with native SQL Server backup files. SQL Virtual Restore supports the same compression and encryption processing as SQL HyperBac and SQL Backup (version 6 and later), so you can keep your backup files in their compressed or encrypted state when they are virtually restored.
