Convert-WindowsImage.ps1 is a very popular method to create VHD's with. However it's not a module, and in it's current form cant be added to one. So I have started a new project on GitHub called WindowsImageTools and posted the results to the PowerShell Gallery. It has a few functions so far. Convert-WindowsImage is the new version of WIM2VHD designed specifically for Windows 8 and above. Written in PowerShell, this command-line tool allows you to rapidly create sysprepped VHDX and VHDX images from setup media for Windows 7/Server 2008 R2, Windows 8/8.1/Server 2012/R2.
Easily convert physical disks or VMware Vmdk drives to Microsoft's VHD format
Convert VHD Free is a simple tool which makes it easier to convert drives into Microsoft's VHD virtual drive format.
The program has two main functions.
It can convert VMware VMDK virtual files into the VHD equivalent. Just choose your source VMDK file, enter a VHD destination, click Convert and leave the program to do its work.
And you can also convert a physical drive into a VHD format, which can be useful if you'd like to run your installed applications within a virtual machine. Again, just choose the source drive, a destination, click Convert, and the program will run a sector-by-sector copy for you.
Convert VHD Free would be more useful with VirtualBox support, or if it could also convert from VHD to VMDK. It's free, though, and if you only need conversions to VHD then the program makes that very straightforward.

Introduction
Convert Vhd To Iso Free Full
Disk2vhd is a utility that creates VHD (Virtual Hard Disk - Microsoft'sVirtual Machine disk format) versions of physical disks for use inMicrosoft Virtual PC or Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machines (VMs). Thedifference between Disk2vhd and other physical-to-virtual tools is thatyou can run Disk2vhd on a system that’s online. Disk2vhd uses Windows'Volume Snapshot capability, introduced in Windows XP, to createconsistent point-in-time snapshots of the volumes you want to include ina conversion. You can even have Disk2vhd create the VHDs on localvolumes, even ones being converted (though performance is better whenthe VHD is on a disk different than ones being converted).
The Disk2vhd user interface lists the volumes present on the system:
It will create one VHD for each disk on which selected volumes reside.It preserves the partitioning information of the disk, but only copiesthe data contents for volumes on the disk that are selected. Thisenables you to capture just system volumes and exclude data volumes, forexample.
Virtual PC supports a maximum virtual disk size of 127GB. Ifyou create a VHD from a larger disk it will not be accessible from aVirtual PC VM.
To use VHDs produced by Disk2vhd, create a VM with the desiredcharacteristics and add the VHDs to the VM's configuration as IDE disks.On first boot, a VM booting a captured copy of Windows will detect theVM's hardware and automatically install drivers, if present in theimage. If the required drivers are not present, install them via theVirtual PC or Hyper-V integration components. You can also attach toVHDs using the Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 Disk Management orDiskpart utilities.
Do not attach to VHDs on the same system on which you createdthem if you plan on booting from them. If you do so, Windows willassign the VHD a new disk signature to avoid a collision with thesignature of the VHD’s source disk. Windows references disks in theboot configuration database (BCD) by disk signature, so when thathappens Windows booted in a VM will fail to locate the boot disk.
Disk2vhd does not support the conversion of volumes with Bitlocker enabled. If you wish to create a VHD for such a volume, turn off Bitlocker and wait for the volume to be fully decrypted first.
Disk2vhd runs on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and higher,including x64 systems.

Command Line Usage
Disk2vhd includes command-line options that enable you to script thecreation of VHDs. Specify the volumes you want included in a snapshot bydrive letter (e.g. c:) or use '*' to include all volumes.
Usage: disk2vhd <[drive: [drive:]...]|[*]><vhdfile>
Example: disk2vhd * c:vhdsnapshot.vhd
Example: disk2vhd * c:vhdsnapshot.vhd
