Raw file editor or mounter (.img etc.)

Is there a raw file editor that can be used to open the files? In testing we ran into a conditon where a HA set was failed and would not sync anymore. The systems engineer we spoke with before hand informaed us that we could use 7-ZIP, but this did not work, nor did any other zip or editor softwsre that could be found. What is the best way to open a file outaside of Starwind?

If none exists, please consider this an enhancement request for a tool that can mount and extract contents from a .img file.

1) Use StarWind to mount image as an non-HA image file. And connect to this volume remotely from any OS with iSCSI initiator.

2) Use StarPort delivered stuff to mount image locally.
