Format/resize error on restore

Thread needs solution

I'm trying to restore a single 1TB disk with 2 partitions with TI2018 and each time I get a Format/resize error. As I configure the restore I just accept all the default values. Any ideas?

Andrew, sorry but more information is needed to understand what this error means?

How are you performing the restore?  (From within Windows or using rescue media to boot).

What size of disk was the backup you are restoring from? (Was this the same disk, a different disk, larger or smaller?)

The log for the restore operation should help show what the core issue is.

If using ATI in Windows, please download the MVP Log Viewer tool (link in my signature below) and use this to review the log file for your restore operation.

If using the Acronis Rescue Media, click on Log in the left panel after trying the restore and before leaving the standalone environment - you can right-click on the log entry shown in the right panel and take the option to save the log to a USB stick or disk drive etc.
