acronis bootable media builder on usb key only works on uefi
I've created a bootable media on a cd and this media was capable to boot both bios and uefi firmware, but when i created a usb key the same only works on uefi
I need to boot on both firmwares as cd can
what's up the issue?

Theres no errors. it was tested on vmware workstation and isntead of acronis loader appear it boots directly on the windows. bios firmware is configured on vmware and also the boot order to removable device
when i try the boot from cd both bios and uefi loads without problems

Have you tried booting any other machine (like physical BIOS machine) from the same flash drive? It could be that the problem is specific to VMware Workstation itself which cannot boot from directly attached USB flash drive which is connected to the VM, regardless of what's inside the flash drive. If this is not the case and booting a VMware Workstation VM in BIOS mode from some other media saved on flash drive works properly, then please contact our support team for further assistance with the issue since it would require separate investigation.
Thank you.
