VHD Attach enables right-click mounting and dismounting of VHD files in Windows 7
by Lee Mathews Nov 3rd 2009
One of Windows 7's slick new features is its handling of VHD (virtual hard disk) files. You can use them for a number of handy functions - from discreetly archiving files and folders to booting a full-fledged Vista, Windows 7, or Windows Server 2008 install via your Windows 7 boot.ini.
But VHDs aren't as easy to work with out-of-the-box as they could be. To mount and unmount, you've got to head over to the Disk Management snap-in (diskmgmt.msc), wait for the screen to populate, go to actions->attach (or detach), browse for your VHD, and then wait some more.
VhdAttach speeds the process up by adding two entries to your context menu. Mouse over a .VHD file, right-click it, and you can mount and dismount right from Windows Explorer. Left click attach, and your VHD will pop up alongside your physical hard disks. When you're all done, detaching is just as simple.
The control app (inset in screenshot) which can open your VHDs and display information about them. You can also attach and detach from this screen.
VhdAttach is a free download and works with both Windows 7 and Server 2008.

If you’ve been running on the same installation of Windows for any length of time, you may have noticed
that some of the software you install adds options into the right-click menu, otherwise known as the context menu.
While this can be handy, it can get out of hand when there are a lot of entries, particularly when you rarely use the
vast majority of them. Windows can also take some time to render a complex menu, particularly when the menu items have
icons associated with them. 
With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
