Cannot find or determine an Image Backup Validation result

Thread needs solution

I apologize for the new thread, but I cannot find the answer anywhere on the web nor in my app.

I have Acronis True Image Home 2011 (including the Plus Pack.)

Anyway, I went to Validate an Image Backup. It took over an hour, but when it was done, nothing happened! According to the help file:

When the validation is complete, you will see the result in the line below the backup's box. 

However, I only see the same old "The backup has successfully completed (9/23/2011)" (That has nothing to do with the validation, I performed the validation on 10/05/2011).

I am hoping that "no news is good news" but how the heck do I know if the validation worked? Boy this is annoying...Please help, there is an critical reason that this is the first time I have used this function. (I.e. I need to be 100% sure this backup is correct before I can more on.)

Thanks much in advance!

PS - Why is this post previewing in raw html? It is 4AM now, as a software engineer that designs application GUI's, I am beyond frustrated...so sorry, but if this posts as HTML that is idiotic and I am not going to lose more sleep over this...(I just spent another 15 minutes wrestling with the text editor to no avail!)

Michael,

If you don't have the latest builde of 2011 (5942) the banners that hang off the backup boxes are out of sync.

The truth is in the log. The log is under the help menu.
