new version installation failure

Thread needs solution

I get a message saying there's a new version of True Image 2014 available, but when I try to install it fails with the error
"Installation has failed.
Fatal error during installation"
Am running windows 8.1
Attaching the error log.

Any ideas please?

The error log shows that the installation failed because a component of the current installation could not be uninstalled by the update installer. Recommend you manually uninstall the app, use the clean up utility after the uninstall process to make certain all components have been removed then, run the update .msi install to do a clean install of the latest version. If you have created any custom backup schemes you will need to copy those schemes in some manner so that you can restore them after the new installation as they will be lost during the process. You can copy and paste these into Word Pad or Note Pad and save them for later retrieval. You can download the latest version install .msi file from your Acronis Account.
