I used Norton Ghost for many years. i want to clean up my old GHO files. My recovery experience is that GHO files are often corrupted, so I want to verify them before selecting which GHO files to save. I also want to open the GHO files to ensure that I'm not throwing away any important data that I haven't backuped elswere before deleting them. (would also like the ability to load an GHO image in a virtual machine in case I need to use some old program that I no longer have, but that's not a current need right now.)
Norton Ghost Explorer 11.5 was free but the download links are not working for me. Is it because I am in Indonesia at the moment and VPN is blocked, or are the files no longer there?

Alternatively, how to install old versions of Norton Ghost on Windows? I understand that it is not compatible for imaging, but surely it could open and extract GHO files?
I have the CDs for:
- Norton Ghost 2003 (but no key on the sleeve)
- Norton Ghost 10 (2005) with key - but will not install on windows 10 (gave error that it is not compatible with the OS)
- Norton Ghost 14 (2007) with key - installed ok but I don't see how to open GHO files! (only opens v2i files?!)
- Nortong Ghost 15 (2009) but the key is unredable (old thermal yellow sticker, parts of the numers faded or rubbed off)
I should also have my old NG boot CDs. Can I boot them in a Virtual Machine in Win 10? (Sounds cumbersome.)
Other possible solutions?
Thank you in advance.
