What is VHD Metadata?
Hidden within VHD files is metadata - structured information that describes the file's attributes and history. This embedded data encompasses creation details, modification records, authorship information, technical parameters, and other descriptive elements not visible in the file's main content.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a free version of this VHD metadata editor?
There's only one version, and it's completely free. Unlike other tools that offer limited free tiers, we provide unrestricted access to all functionality without requiring payment or even creating an account.
Where are my VHD files processed?
Processing occurs entirely within your device's memory using your browser's built-in capabilities. No cloud servers, no remote processing, no external APIs - everything stays local to your machine.
Are all VHD metadata fields editable?
Most metadata fields can be modified, including common ones like titles, authors, and dates. However, certain low-level technical fields are locked to prevent accidental file corruption or format violations.
Does it work on smartphones and tablets?
Absolutely! The tool is fully functional on mobile devices. We've designed the interface to work seamlessly with touch gestures, and all features available on desktop are also available on mobile.
Can editing metadata corrupt my VHD file?
Corruption is prevented by design. Our tool validates all changes and only modifies the metadata section of the file, never touching the actual content data that makes up your file.
How many VHD files can I process at once?
We process files individually rather than in batches. This approach ensures each file receives proper validation and prevents one problematic file from affecting others in a batch.
