Can i safely disable / remove all Acronis TIB start-up programmes?

Thread needs solution

I notice Acronis has several little programmes running in my start-up group 

AcronisTBMounterMonitor, a scheduler, and TrueImageMonitor etc.

I prefer just to run Acronis when I like, and not to have any scheduled back ups; can I disable ALL these start-up programmes with no ill consequences?

Grahame, welcome to these User Forums.

Please see KB 56697: Acronis True Image 2016: Services and Processes  and 

KB 60522: Acronis True Image 2018: Windows services and processes  which describe each of the items that you are looking at disabling / removing.  Note: there is no separate 2017 KB document.

The one item that you do need to keep is the Scheduler2 service which is used by your backup tasks regardless of whether you are running these manually or by schedule.
