Repetitive crash during recovering (trueimagehomeservice.exe has stopped)

Thread needs solution

I'm trying to recover backup (files and folders) from disk D: to disk D: but every time i get message "trueimagehomeservice.exe has stopped".

Backup is quite big - 122GB, but there is enough free space.

I use the last build of Acronis True Image 2016 on Windows 7 64-bit.

I created new backup and tried to recover it but have got the same error.

 Can't insert image, just attached it.

There are several suggestions here:

1.  See KB document 56697: Acronis True Image 2016: Services and Processes and check the services running on your system against those shown in the document.  If needed, start any that appear to not be running.

2.  If the recovery is urgent, boot your computer from the Acronis bootable Rescue Media and try the recovery of these files from that method.

3.  You may need to attempt either a Repair or Clean install of the ATIH 2016 product.  To Repair the product, just try reinstalling it again over the top of what is already there - download the latest installer from your Acronis Account.  See below for instructions on doing a clean install.

Perform a clean install of ATIH 2016

First uninstall the program via the Control Panel (or use an uninstaller such as Revo).

Run the Acronis Cleanup Tool (link in my signature below), then restart the computer.
Note: The KB document for the Cleanup Tool refers to checking for entries in the Windows registry - I have ignored this step on the occasions I have used it with no detriment, though if making changes to the registry, I strongly advise either exporting the registry before the change(s), or create a System Restore point, or image the drive for protection.

Reinstall the ATIH software (download a fresh copy from your Acronis Account if needed or if you don't have the latest build version installer).  Run the install as an Administrator (right-click on the installer to take this option).
It is also recommended to suspend your security programs (antivirus, anti-malware etc) during the install as these programs can cause Access Denied errors for the Acronis installer program.

Note 1: If you have purchased an Upgrade version of ATIH 2016 you will be asked for two serial numbers during the install - one for 2016 and one for the previous version that the upgrade is based on, i.e. 2015.

Note 2: The cleanup tool will remove all your backup tasks and task history.  If you want to protect this information, then open C:\ProgramData\Acronis\TrueImageHome\ in Windows Explorer - this may be hidden on some systems - if so, go to the Folder option in the View pane and enable hidden files & folders).

Save a copy of the Database and Scripts folders to another location to restore back later.

Note 3: In order to restore the above folders & contents, you must stop all Acronis Services & Programs else you will encounter locked files in the Database folder.
