A Virtual Hard Disk (VHD or VHDX) image of Windows 10 is a pre-configured virtual disk file containing a complete installation of the operating system. Unlike a standard ISO file, which requires you to run through the entire Windows installation wizard, a VHD image allows you to bypass the setup phase entirely. It provides a ready-to-boot environment for virtual machines, software testing, and dual-boot configurations.
