Acronis 2014 ISO image from Product download will not burn to USB
I have downloaded my 2014 ISO file to make a recovery usb. I have tried the recommended iso to usb software and Rufus. Rufus states it is not compatible with Acronis ISO's and will not work. The iso to usb software always fails.
Can anyone help with a solution. My last resort is to reinstall Acronis 2014 on another PC and make a rescue usb.
Thanks,
Nick

Nicholas, the message is most likely a false positive from AAP. The options are to either Trust the syslinux.exe file and so allow the USB boot sector to be modified by YUMI, or to turn off AAP while you run YUMI to create the media.

I selected the trust syslinux and ran YUMI. It completed but the usb is not bootable. The files seem to have copied but the recovery directory is under multiboot if that makes a difference.

Nicholas, have you tried the option I described in my earlier post, to 'Try unlisted ISO (GRUB)' with the ATI 2014 ISO file, as this copies the .ISO file to the ISOS folder within the Mulitboot path?

Further update:
I just tried booting my YUMI multiboot USB stick on an old Dell PC to test and it just hung with a flashing cursor in the top left corner!
I took the same USB stick (4GB) and used Ventoy instead to initialise the USB stick then copied the ATI 2014 .ISO media file to the first exFAT partition on the stick.
Trying the USB stick with Ventoy on the same old Dell PC worked just fine and booted into ATI 2014 with no problem.
The process to use Ventoy is very easy.
Download the latest ventoy-1.0.73 zip file, extract to your local disk, run the Ventoy2Disk.exe application with your USB stick connected. Select the correct USB stick and let Ventoy format the drive. A hidden small partition is created at the end of the drive that is used for booting along with the remaining space formatted as exFAT for storage of .ISO files etc. Copy your ISO file to the stick.
Note: Explorer will only show the copied files on the USB stick.
