  As I needed to take out my backup HDD to make another (Differential)
image backup, I might as well post more detailed/correct instructions
for accessing/copying files and folders in/from a Macrium Reflect image:

[Assuming the disk containing the image file(s) is online/connected.]

- Start Macrium Reflect.
- Select the 'Existing Backups' tab.
- In the lower-right pane, select the .mrimg file of your latest image
  backup, i.e. the last Differential or Full (if no Differenttial).
- Right-click that entry and select 'Browse Image...'.
- In the 'Backup Selection' popup window, tick the partition you want to
  browse, for example 'Windows (C:)' and click '[OK]'.
- The image of the partition will now be mounted as an extra drive, for
  example 'Windows (E:)'.
- In File Explorer (FE), you can now access/copy files and folders in/
  from that new drive, just like you can with any normal drive.
- When done, go to 'This PC' in FE, right-click the new drive and select
  'Macrium Reflect' -> 'Unmount Macium Image'. Answer the UAC prompt.
  Now the new drive will be gone.
