how to backup an Hyper-v VM with Win 11?

I have Hyper-V installed on Win 11 and I'd like to schedule a full backup (that could be restored!).

I could export VM, but it's manual, not automatic!

I'd read about Windows Server Backup, but I'm not sure I could get it on Win 11 ; I didn't succeeded to install it :-(

As my VM is Linux, I could make a system backup, that gives a .img, but after, I don' know what to do with it in Hyper-V

    There are some free third party solutions such as:

    Some solutions have a cost depending on what backup feature you need.

    Hi, I'm Elise, and I'd be happy to help with your issue.

    To do this automatically you would need to use some form of backup software, there isn’t anything built in to Windows 11 for VM backup so you would have to use something third party unfortunately.

    Alternative as you have mentioned you can do this manually By exporting.

    Kind Regards,

    Elise

    Hi Elise,

    I've managed to make it work ; I was slow to understand things...

    (I didn't test the restore yet)

    Thanks again

    Hi Elise

    sorry for my late reply.

    I've installed this third party solution (AOMEI Cyber Backup), the features are what I'm looking for :-)

    I still have some issues to use it, but that's another story on another forum.

    I'll come back to this forum in a few days I hope
