Does True Image back up everything?

Thread needs solution

I'm new to Acronis and have done my first true image back up to an external hard drive but am confused by the size of the back up. My laptop HD is at 410gb but the back up on the 1tb external drive is only 213gb so was worried I'm missing something? Any advice would be much appreciated.

No worries; there is data compression in the backup. Under settings, you can adjust those for time vs compression level.

You can open the backup file just by double clicking on it and drilling down and it will display in Windows Explorer and you can see what's in there.
