Hi. How do I restore a .tib file to a new drive? I can't find the "restore" option in True Image 2016 for PC that I keep seeing in other versions of the software on online videos.. 

I'm on windows 7.

Tony, welcome to these User Forums.

What type of backup image are you wanting to restore to a new drive?  
Is this a Disk & Partitions backup, or is it a Files & Folders backup?

The restore options are shown in the main ATIH 2016 GUI when you have selected the backup task that created the image, i.e. you will see three buttons shown at the bottom of the main GUI panel, [Options] [Recover disks] [Recover files]

If you are wanting to restore a Disk & Partitions backup that includes the Windows OS to a new drive, then this should be done by using the Acronis Rescue Media to boot the computer.

When booting from the Acronis Rescue Media, you will see an older version of the Acronis application GUI which may be more familiar to you from the older product versions.
