Mount and edit tib images created with ASD 3

Thread needs solution

Hello,

I would like to mount and edit the .tib images created by ASD 3.
Since the ASD doesn't offer this feature, i tried to use the lastest True Image Home 2010 build 7046 for this:
It mounted the image and i was able to add files to it etc., but then the ASD crashed when i attempted to create a template with the new image.

Does anyone have a successful experience doing this and with what True Image version?

I've found a related KB article but it doesn't provide much information:

Thanks,
Michael

Hello Michael,

Thank you for your question. I will be happy to assist you.

At the moment, the current version of Acronis Snap Deploy 3 does not support mounting/exploring images, however, this is an interesting suggestion and I will forward it to our Development team.

The article that you refer to is a backup archive compatibility table. It shows, that there is no guarantee that Snap Deploy 3 images are compatible with other programs created by Acronis.

If you need additional assistance, please let me know.

Thank you.

Just as a side not to Anton. I second the comment that it would be great to edit tib files. I got into ATIH with version 9 and am on 2010 now. But I heard you could limit the items backed up. However I find no way to do this except through extensions. I'm talking about image files of course. I would like to exclude folders not extensions, and allowing me to edit a tib would allow me to maybe delete folders I don't need. One feature or another (or maybe both). Hey thanks for at least listening. Golly some software companies don't even to that.

would love to beable to view and extract files from the tib we are using ASD3 as well. Is there something in the future that will allow us to do this. I know when we had ghost we could open the image and copy files from it. will this be possible soon?
