For example, I run a macro program called Quickeys which stores its settings in the Documents and Settings folder. Whether you do a full restore of an image or individual and selected files, TrueImage will bring the files to the hardware you specify. I think we need to distinguish the difference between what TrueImage will do separately from what problems may be brought about by Windows security and hardware “discrimination.” As I know it, TrueImage and other imaging products couldn’t care less about the hard drive upon which you restore files to. Whoa, Nellie! This needs some more explanation, Jeff. I say “reliable” in an attempt to distinguish the typical TI bashing which one often reads which most often are voiced by individuals who have typically so “tweaked” and messed up their computers that most anything new would produce errors from those which are rational, objective and seek to help. Like most here, I’m holding off until the “dust” settles and reliable reports start coming in on version 10’s reliability, dependability and bugs. So, the lesson to be learned, hopefully BEFORE it actually happens is that the individual files within “.tib” files are not globally accessible, but rather only 100% accessible via the original machine that created them. Fortunately, I also had the wherewithal to save the entire “Documents and Settings” folder and the “outlook.pst” separately by copying it directly from C: to an external USB drive. I discovered the inaccessibility of these valuable files the hard way. That section of the backup image is only accessible when it is mounted with the exact same machine from which it came…… get it? However, should these features in TI 10 do what they appear to do, then such files as the “outlook.pst”, etc., would be accessible since they are not embedded/connected with the “Full” backup image via another machine. Should you ever have the occasion to replace an ailing PC with another, that “Full” backup image you are relying upon to save you is going to be next to worthless if any of the files you need are in the “Documents and Settingsusername” folder. Here’s the deal with those items which I listed as being potentially valuable to me personally. In the meantime, the ‘s haven’t flown yet I’ve been with True Image since version 6.0, and I don’t recall one (1) update/upgrade that didn’t required some form of creative workaround or several updates to the upgrade. I am just loosing faith in Acronis’ ability to program upgrades and implement them effectively. So how would that have worked if I uninstalled 9.0 first?ĭon’t get me wrong Bob, I do still like True Image – the software – it is awesome at what it does. To do this, run the installation program and select the “Repair/Upgrade Acronis True Image” option.īesides, I bought the upgrade, not the full version. You can install the latest update for Acronis True Image 10.0 Home over the existing version. As quoted from the Acronis web site:ĭo I need to uninstall the existing version of Acronis True Image prior to installing the latest update? I know that Acronis will ‘eventually’ get back to me on the reg problem, but I don’t agree with you on uninstalling version 9.0 before installing version 10.0.
