Here are the steps to convert VHDX to IMG archive using ezyZip.
-
To select the VHDX file, you have two options:
-
Click "Select VHDX file to convert" to open the file chooser
- Drag and drop the VHDX file directly onto ezyZip
Click "Select VHDX file to convert" to open the file chooser
-
-
Click "Convert to IMG". It will start the conversion process which will take some time to complete.
-
Click on "Save IMG File" to save the converted IMG file to your selected destination folder.

Yes. ezyZip utilises the processing power of your own computer and browser to complete the task. No file data leaves your browser. Unsure? Turn off your WiFi when completing the uncompression. It will continue to work as no data is uploaded to the internet.
ezyZip is a free online VHDX to IMG converter that runs in your browser. No need to install any additional converter software. It supports a myriad of other file conversion options too.
Unlike other online archive conversion utilities, ezyZip does not require uploading files to a server. Use it as many times as you want, completely free. It runs locally as a browser app, thus making it much quicker than other online conversion tools. This also ensures your privacy will be protected as no file data will leave your browser.
VHDX (Virtual Hard Disk v2) is the modern virtual disk format from Microsoft, succeeding VHD. Used by Hyper-V, VHDX supports larger disk sizes (up to 64 TB), improved performance, and better data corruption protection. VHDX files contain complete virtual hard drives with partitions, file systems, and all stored data.
This tool can extract files from VHDX disk images, making VM data accessible without Hyper-V.
Note: When extracting files from a VHDX image, the extracted content is often much smaller than the original file size. This is because VHDX files commonly use dynamic expansion. The disk image reserves space for the entire virtual hard drive, but most of it is typically empty (zero-filled). Only the actual data (operating system, applications, and user files) is extracted. The remaining space consists of unused reserved blocks, disk metadata, and space from files that were deleted inside the virtual machine but never reclaimed by the disk image.

IMG files are raw disk image files containing exact sector-by-sector copies of disks or partitions. They can represent floppy disks, hard drives, optical media, or flash drives. IMG files preserve the complete disk structure including boot sectors, partitions, and file systems.

Why client-side VHDX to IMG conversion is faster and more private
ezyZip converts VHDX to IMG entirely within your browser's WebAssembly runtime. Here is why local conversion outperforms server-based converters:
- Optimal Engine RoutingThe system automatically selects the best decompression and compression engine for each format combination. For large archives, streaming conversion stages data through the Origin Private File System to avoid memory exhaustion while maintaining throughput.
- No Double TransferServer-based converters require uploading the source archive and downloading the converted result — local processing eliminates this double-transfer overhead. For a 1 GB archive on a typical connection, this saves 30+ minutes of transfer time alone.
- Single-Pass TranscodingDecompression and re-encoding happen in a single pipeline within WASM, avoiding intermediate temporary files. The input format is decoded and the output format is encoded in one continuous pass, minimizing disk writes and processing time.
