When I backup an internal disc with Acronis to an external drive (the whole disc), if it fails, can I restore it to a new internal disc if the external drive fails?

This version is not for you
4/5

The year 2014 is here. Acronis backup is something I've used in the past It was last updated in 2014, and it worked perfectly. The previous version was excellent, so I had hoped for the same with this one. Despite this, Acronis has decided that the ONLY way to backup your data is to use a cloud service. They have their own Cloud service that costs additional money. The software no longer supports backups to DVDs, or, in my case, to blue-ray discs Disks with a x-ray pattern. The color blue appeals to me. The reason I use Ray backup is because it does not take up much disk space, and I control where the backups are stored. My safe can be used for storing sensitive files. The truth is, this does not work with external drives, even though it advertises it as being compatible. Furthermore, I guess they all admit it when I contact their rather mediocre technical support department. To solve my problem, they suggested that I backup my hard drive directly to my hard drive and then manually copy it to the Blue-ray player The disk has a Blu-Ray layer. My Blue-ray disk could be backed up to their Cloud service and I would manually copy the files to my disk The author. Then I would perform the process in reverse to try to recover the files This is a copy of They can restore from their Cloud if they go to their This program is also extremely intrusive, which is a concern. Running Task Manager, I found that there were 6 background processes for Acronis running at all times. Despite the fact that I do not know what they are all doing, I believe they are communicating over my wifi network. Additionally, there are a few that show up in my taskbar. As well, they are not removeable from the task bar.

I was looking for a simple system for backing up my data. The server is managed by me. I use it to compress and write files to my Blue-ray disc The object is rayed away, and it vanishes. Quite different from what you had in mind. What could have been a good product has been ruined by Acronis. *UPDATE As a result of contacting Acronis customer support, I was able to downgrade I have an updated version of the program that does what I need, has less "intrusiveness", and is much faster. (For example, the Task Bar item is gone. The author. In order to upgrade my assessment to 4 stars, I am doing so.

It will not install on my Windows 10 computer, just hangs up
3/5

Here is a dreary story After using Acronis cloud for a year, I was satisfied with its performance. I failed to renew the Acronis cloud subscription, which resulted in this product being disabled. They disabled it when they wouldn't even let me do local backups. Their cloud offering was virtually useless, given that I kept experiencing bandwidth limitations and only had token storage capacity (unless I wanted to buy more) to work with. Since my local backup was based on a disk, I returned to using a simple local backup solution. How could things possibly They can even give me another chance by simply sending the basic local disk storage Trying to install the Acronis True Image 2017 CD that I received from Amazon was a challenge. The installer failed to install, as it said I already had an Acronis product, because the cloud product I It's OK to uninstall it now. Acronis uninstall informed me that it had already been uninstalled. In what way? I checked, but it is If you don't know how to uninstall Acronis 2016, please google "How to Oh my gosh, a link leads to Acronis' webpage with a script to download and run (start-up. gif You can run, walk, My next YGBSM moment occurred when I was instructed to remove any errant key settings in RegEdit. What the heck? Now that I know this has happened to others, I am at least more aware of it. My first step is to edit the registry and then to use the CD to do a pure installation. In spite of over an hour of observing the Status time-bar, no progress was made during the installation process. On the CD, there might be a bad copy. This is the same as what I get when I download 2017 from the website. I think I need to rerun the script and remove all remnants of Acronis (again), so that I can remove them all. I'm a noob. No relief, no glory, just nada. Having retired from a career in IT, I can speak from experience. Since almost the day Microsoft was founded, I have been playing with it. The only product I've ever been unable to remove, replace, or reinstall was an optical drive. This is how it has been up to I. Bowel Cancer. My frustration stems from the fact that I didn't renew my cloud coverage so my local backups were disabled. 1. 2. The fact they have such a sophisticated, and hidden, script to remove the product and edit the Registry is stunning. Have you ever heard of customers getting Do you have a thought in mind? How could things possibly 2. 1. 2. 2. 2. 3. My goal is to install the software and continue with my work. The only thing is, I feel wasted since I paid for a product I didn't need The DVD is a perfectly functioning product, but now the CD envelope has been opened. I will try to return it. Does this scenario have a good chance of going my way? Keep True Image 2017 away from your computer. Several issues are present in this case.

Do not buy from Hyper Microsystems, they only sell single licenses
3/5

Having made an Amazon purchase of the 5-computer license software from Hyper Microsystems, I received an Acronis box labeled 1 Computer that had a barcode sticker attached that reads "B01KOG0GWG Acronis True Image 2017 - 1" It is the new 5th generation computer. While it installed without a hitch on one computer, I experienced trouble when I attempted to install it on a second PC months later. The Acronis tech support team confirmed that the license is for a single computer. The return was accepted by Amazon due to their understanding of the situation. A big THANK YOU to Amazon! When I contacted Hyper Microsystems to find out what they had to say about it, they replied, "We have already sold over 30 units without any issues, but thanks for the insight. ". The time I wasted with Hyper Microsystems was over an hour of my time. It's over now. I should write myself a note Make sure you choose the right software vendor.
