Cannot assign a drive letter to a partition from the backup archive

Thread needs solution

Has anybody else seen this error with 2016? I had it the other day and had to perform a clean install to get rid of it.

Philip, welcome to these user forums.

We will need more information from you please, what is the exact Build number of the trial version of ATIH 2016 you have installed - this is shown on the Account page and should be 6571 if you have the latest build?

What actions are you performing when you have the issue with assigning a drive letter - are you doing this from within the ATIH program GUI or doing this via Windows Explorer by right-clicking on a backup file (.TIB) then selecting TrueImage then Mount?

Please try downloading the TibMounter patch from post https://forum.acronis.com/forum/116874?page=1#comment-374611 - you need to extract the .MSI file from the zip archive, then right click on this and select Install.  This fixes the known problems in this area.
