6 Nightly backup tasks - how can I run them together?
I have 6 nightly backup tasks using Acronis True Image 2009 (build 9809) that each backup a separate drive. They are staggered to run at 1:00am, 1:02am, 1:04am, 1:06am, etc - I like that Acronis will run the later tasks once the earlier ones are finished - meaning that I don't have to guestimate how long each task will take.
Sometimes (ie after a major update), I want to run my nightly backup routine during the day. I would love to be able to select the 6 tasks together and click 'execute' ... but I can't.
How can I run this 6 tasks with minimal mouse clicks and not having to wait around until the previous task is finished?
Batch file?

Good idea and thanks for the link. I'm running Win7 so my paths are slightly different - also under Win7, you will have to run it as an administrator. Note that the tis files are just plain text xml files and you can see exactly which tasks they are if you open them with notepad.
Here is what I ended up with (run "Acronis Multi-Tasks.bat" and it will call "Acronis Multi-Tasks Single.bat" as many times as is needed ...
Batch file #1 - "Acronis Multi-Tasks.bat"
@echo off
rem part0
call "call "Drive:\Folders that hold your bat file\Acronis Multi-Tasks Single.bat"
rem part1
call "call "Drive:\Folders that hold your bat file\Acronis Multi-Tasks Single.bat"
Batch file #2 - "Acronis Multi-Tasks Single.bat"
@echo off
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Acronis\TrueImageHome\TrueImageHomeService.exe" /script:"C:\ProgramData\Acronis\TrueImageHome\Scripts\%1"
