You can start Ghost Explorer from a command prompt by typing its path and file name.
To start Ghost Explorer from a command prompt |
c:\Program Files\Symantec\Ghost\Ghostexp
This is the default path to Ghost Explorer.
You can also provide a Ghost image file as an argument for Ghost Explorer to open.
Ghostexp n:\Images\Myimage.gho
If Ghost Explorer reports a corruption in your image file, you may be able to get further details of the nature of the corruption. Normally, you would only use these options when asked to do so by Ghost Technical Support.
The reports are presented to you as dialog boxes. You can use all switches or use -d7 to turn on all options.
Ghost Explorer has a batch mode in which it carries out a single command and then exits. In this version, batch mode supports the saving of the contents to a text file only.
Listing the contents of an image file
If Ghost Explorer reports that a spanned or split image is corrupt without prompting for the second part of the image, it may not recognize that the image is split. Starting with the -split argument forces Ghost Explorer to treat an image as a split image.
