Open PQI File

PQI extension files, or PowerQuest Drive, are image files created by PowerQuest drive imaging software, which creates an exact copy of a hard drive for backup purposes.

PowerQuest Drive is a drive cloning software package for Intel-based computers, developed and distributed by the former PowerQuest Corporation.

Starting with version 7 of Drive Image, it became the basis for Norton Ghost 9.0, which was released to retail markets in August 2004, which was a competing product, developed by Binary Research, before Symantec bought the company in 1998.

The PQI format file can be used to restore a hard drive in the event of a crash or failure.

PQI files can be opened with PowerQuest's PQIBrowser or with Symantec Norton Ghost, which is part of Norton SystemWorks.
