Abstract

A method and system thereof for restoring a virtual desktop are presented. A method may include generating a try-snapshot upon selection of a restore point of the virtual desktop, wherein the try-snapshot is an empty file. The method may further include linking the try-snapshot subsequently to a snapshot of the restore point without modifying snapshots created after the snapshot of the restore point and using the try-snapshot as an active snapshot upon affirmation of said restore point.
