Transferring files to a Desktop PC from a broken Mac Hard Drive

Hi

I've been using Parallels on my Mackbook Pro for many years now and running Windows for my accounting programs.

However, my Macbook broke down and had to be replaced - I decided this would be a good time to make the switch to a PC Windows laptop.

Unfortunately, I did not manage to do a full back up of my accounting program running on Windows on the Mac. I have managed to recover the actual Hard Drive only which is in good working order. My question is:

Will I be able to connect my old Mac Hard drive to my PC and run the accounting program to make the backup since it should be in a format that the Windows PC recognises or will that not be possible?

Hopefully, someone can help with this problem.

Peace

Khalid
 
Hello @KhalidM2 I understand your concern, however, as your Windows OS which ran on your Mac using Parallels is a virtualized environment it will not be recognized by your normal Windows PC.
