Hello Federico,

Welcome to the forum!

In order to open the backup files, you need to have the agent installed.

Please refer to this knowledge base (KB) article for detailed instructions on how to install the agent and its respective modules: https://kb.acronis.com/content/69387.

Thanks in advance!

yes, but the agent installs all the software with all the functions, on a particular PC where I manage the backups, I only want to have the TIBXs opened...but from the answer I understand that it is not possible or not foreseen.

Federico, there are only really two choices / options here.

  1. If you use ACPHO, you can now do a Custom Install where you only install the base Backup, Recovery & Clone tools, which includes the integration with Windows Explorer.
    See  Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office: how to install | Knowledge Base
     
  2. Create the bootable Acronis rescue media and use this when you want to open any of your TIBX image files, understanding that you will be booting from the media into a stand-alone environment.

If you have ATI 2020 or 2021, then it is install everything or nothing, but you can disable most of the background services using the latest version of the MVP Assistant tool.
MVP Assistant Version 2.6.3 is available.

Correct Federico.

The module is integrated with the agent ( local or B.media ). We don't have any way to install just the tool to open the backups without installing the entire backup agent.

Thanks in advance!
