We can download from http://www.shadowexplorer.com/downloads.html and install it on 32-bit or 64-bit Windows platform.
Open this program next to select one volume as “C:” and create time, you can see all contents in right plane.
Right-Click the loss data from this and select “Export” to put this data to the special location.

But in workstation version as 64-bit windows 7, We can directly create it by ShadowExplorer’s “Configure System Protection…”
It will pop up the System Properties and press “Create…” button for creating Shadow Copy.
