Programme vs. Program Files

Thread needs solution

When trying to make a restore I get the following mesage: see Pic_1.png

Further investigation found the following problem.

Since I use the German Version of Acronis 2018 the folders have following names:

Programme and Programme (x86) see Pic_2.png

I select them for backup according to Pic_3.png

However the actual backup is made to the folder names "Program Files" and "Program Files (x86)"

See Pic_4.png and Pic_5.png.

Due to this mismatch of the folder names I get the message shown in Pic_1.png.

I am wondering why nobody else had this problem.

 

Have a nice day

Hempi, from the description that you have given, it looks that you are trying to do a Files & Folders type restore of Windows System Folders which should not be done.

Any Windows System Folders such as Program Files or Program Files (x86) are protected by the operating system and will probably have active programs and dynamic link libraries in the same.  Such files and folders should only be restored as part of a full Disk & Partition recovery and done when Windows is not active.
