How to edit Virtual Hard Drives(vhd) with C#?

Question

I have a given .vhd-File and want to edit it programmatically in C# WITHOUT MOUNTING IT. Does anyone know how to do this(possibly with an api or library)?

Do you mean you just want to open it as a disk you can write to using C#? — PCG, Dec 07 '13 at 17:54

you can use discutils: http://discutils.codeplex.com/

"DiscUtils is a .NET library to read and write ISO files and Virtual Machine disk files (VHD, VDI, XVA, VMDK, etc). DiscUtils is developed in C# with no native code (or P/Invoke)."
