Disable direct file restore in Veeam vCloud Self-Service portal

Luca Dell'Oca, May 15, 2018May 14, 2018

With Microsoft however, this has always been a problem. Software based on Microsoft platform cannot be easily packaged that way.

Lately, however, I found a great solution to have at least the whole operating system up and running in few minutes.
