    Hi,
    Do you mean you want to get those changed files stored in differencing disk? If there’s any misunderstanding, please feel free to feedback.

    Yes,
    I'd like to get a list of all files that have changed with respect to the parent (stored in differencing disk)

    • new files
    • deleted files
    • files with changed metadata (attributes)
    • files whose content has changed

    Hi,
    It's a pity that there seems to be no such method so far.
    That's a good idea and may be realized in the future.

    Thanks for your time!
    Best Regards,
