Modular Component Installation
I have upgraded from Acronis True Image 2021 to Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office Essentials. During the upgrade, there was a screen describing the Modular Component Installation but I did not have any option for modular installation. I only had an option to upgrade. KB69387 shows the first option as "Backup and core protection". Is that what I have?
I see I still have a lot of Acronis services running:
I don't think these are all required for my uses.
Has anyone upgraded to the Essentials product? Did you have the same experience?
Thanks.

Phil, welcome to these public User Forums.
The new Custom install option is not always obvious to users unless they are looking for it!

As Steve says, finding custom installation is not always obvious. There is a knowledge base document that appears to cover it (see here).

Thanks for your answers Steve and Ian. Acronis popped up an upgrade message with a link. Clicking the upgrade link bypassed the custom install and installed all the components. The upgrade link should have given the custom install options. No big deal but could be a little more user friendly.
