I'm not familiar with HFV Explorer. Are you looking at the original
image or one of the images inside, e.g.
/Legacy Recovery/Apple II/System Software/ProDOS/ProDOS Users Disk.img
The operations with Disk Utility & Disk Copy just decompress the image.
After that, it's just an image of the disk:
$ hd -s 0x400 ProDOS\ Users\ Disk.img | more
