So the backup service just uses the shadow copy itself to make the backup i believe and the back up that I am running these tasks off of is the oldest that we have.
Would you have any suggestions of software that may be able to work at that level to try to get data back. I am not sure what we would be able to do with the data even if we were to get what we are looking for since they don't make the software anymore for the program they used the VM for. But I guess anything is better than nothing.
I thank you for the help you were able to provide.
