I have a VM with two drives, C: and S:. (The S: drive was made very recently.) They're SCSI ID 0 and 2.
When I use Veeam 3.1.1's file level restore to browse my backup, I see the contents of the S: listed as C:, and the contents of the C: drive listed as D:. The files work fine (I can see the files I care about) but it's weird that the drive letters are off.

Re: File level restore on Windows: Drive letters wrong?
Alex, yes this is a known issue (documented in the Release Notes).
The reason is that our file level restore does not pull drive letter assignment information from the registry at restore time...File Level Restore
• Backup Browser may show different drive letters than in the actual VM.
