Considering this potential pitfall for whole disk restore, I will ditch Acronis, and do my duplicate OS backups with IFL and Macrium Reflect. Neither Macrium Reflect nor IFW/IFL has that option, while they restore perfectly fine without confusing users with that stupid 'restore MRB and track 0' option.įortunately I have a disk image made by IFL, which saved my ass this time. I am very curious why Acronis still keep that option (Restore MBR and Track 0), no matter the type of your OS/system (MBR vs UEFI Secure boot). But since this was no longer considered a 'Whole disk restore', I had to manually confirm the correct location for each GPT partitions to restore. I then tried to restore again, with the 'Restore MBR and track 0' manually unselected. the restore resulted in a non bootable OS, not surprisingly, since my OS is a UEFI with secure boot system.

Since I don't do OS image restore often these days, I accidentally ticked the 'restore whole disk' option, which automatically selected 'restore MBR and first track 0'. However, a test restore of the whole disk turned out to be a disaster. The backup went well, as always: quick, efficient with small disk image size. My laptop was stolen yesterday near the center, does anybody know where/how the person that robbed it would try to make profit out of it? (It’s really important that I find as I have important information there) Software that implements the new concept is restic, duplicati and a few others.Tested the new Acronis True Image 2017 backup and restore for my Windows 10 LTSB Enterprise install on an SSD drive, using the whole disk backup/restore options.WhatsApp backups on Google Drive may not be unlimited anymore Use something like Duplicati for the final step.Has any one of you recent experience with this tool? - Source: Reddit / 6 months ago It seems to be similar to Duplicity/DejaDup, tools I usually use, but which aren't available on Windows. Any experience with Duplicati2 as a backup tool on Windows? Searching the internet, I came across Duplicati2.* Borg * Duplicacy * Duplicati * Kopia * restic. Backup options that allow for deduplication? These are the options that I am aware of with de duplication, in alphabetical order, there are almost certainly a bunch of others that I'm unaware of as well.Anybody know if anyone is working on bringing it back online? - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago Not sure how long this has been down for, certainly the past few days that I've been trying to get to it. is broken - won't load, yet works fine.
