Restoration of Licensed Software
We use Acronis Cyber Cloud for your Company. Recently, one of our Computers crashed. I want to know, if we had taken backup of "Entire Machine", could Acronis Cyber Cloud have restored all data + Licensed Software and applications that were installed on that machine? For e.g. We had a paid version of a video editing software. Will Acronis Cyber Cloud restore the software along with the license? Does "Entire Machine" mean Image Backup?

Hi @Bobbo_3C0X1 Thanks for that explanation.
I'm however, still a little bit unsure, whether taking a backup of "Entire Machine" backs up system registry as well, which means including Software and their associated licenses.
Hoping someone at Acronis Support takes notice, and clarifies this.
Good day!

Hello Pranab BG,
every disk-level backup contains all data physically stored on the imaged drive (disk structure, registry, data) unless explicitly excluded by a user. Whether the reactivation of the installed soft is needed or not mainly depends on how your software is licensed e.g. you may need to reactivate the software on the new system, if that software activation is based on the hardware signature where it was installed.
