Can Rescue Disk for ATIH 2017 be used to create image backups and just data backups????

Thread needs solution

Hi:

Despite the fact that I have ATIH 2015 for all my comp[uters, I find it more convenient, and less confusing, to use my Rescue Media with its Linux software, to both create image backups of my computers and restore then as needed, if needed.

Does this capability still exist in the Rescue Media software created by ATIH 2017?

Thanks for any responses.

MAK, yes, the same capability exists in all versions of ATIH, including 2017.  

The one further comment that I would add is to consider also creating the Windows PE version of the Acronis Rescue Media for when you encounter a computer that does not support or allow the use of the Linux version of the media, as some of the latest UEFI systems with Secure Boot may do.

You will also need to use Windows PE version if any of the storage media (HDD, SSD) use raid divers rather than AHCI drivers. This processs is simplified if you use the MVP Tool.

No need to reply to me.  I contacted Acronis directly and got my answers.  The answer is yes.

 

Over and Out.
