I want recovery of Windows 10 - from TIB backup[in HDD 4TB] to SSD, Are you recommend format target SSD to recover to, AND after doing the recovery...?

with the format of SSD, I will not have to choose EACH TARGET Partition FOR Each Source Partition...?

How to format Windows 10 SSD disk 0, for recovery from tib image in HDD,... if cannot boot to windows...???

Can I with Acronis TI 2018 DVD MEDIA...? How?

https://kb.acronis.com/content/59873

Can recover from tib to a formatted disk SSD...?

Since the SSD is different how to do this? format SSD first (how-to? from diskpart?), after recover???

 

When recovering a backup of Windows to an existing drive, then there is no need to format the target drive first as Acronis will do this as the first operation for the recovery!

The recovery media should be used for this type of recovery and should be booted in UEFI BIOS boot mode as your image shows you have an EFI System Partition in your backup.

You should click on the top Disk level selection box rather than on the individual partitions that are listed below that top level.  Clicking on Disk will automatically select all partitions but will avoid needing to set the size and location of each partition manually.

You are welcome to look at some of the videos on my YouTube channel for examples of how I have done disk recovery recently.

I failed RECOVERY from backup.tib - Backup of Windows10pro Disk 0 - all partitions

SEE SCREENSHOTS

See ERROR - 20211027_135839.jpg

Also, a DESTINATION Disk Can Not get selected...

Your backup image contains a corrupt partition bitmap as per the error message. To restore that image will use sector by sector mode which requires a target disk of sufficient size or larger than the source drive. 

Why can't select destination drive to recover to...?

See second screen shot

During backup where was the error and have gotten 

"Your backup image contains a corrupt partition bitmap as per the error message" on recovery

...?

 

 

The error is contained within the backup image .tib file and it is possible that the bitmap corruption is making the source disk size look to be larger than your disk 1 4TB capacity!

Try another backup image if you have one available?

I use Acronis TI 2018

I fix the situation, by using the initial cloned disk[small SSD - I keep it intact], to clone data back to the big SSD,...

To make a backup of SSD 1TB Disk C:/ with all its Partitions, to internal HDD 4TB, and avoid this error again [the bitmap corruption], what have to do,...?

Also, this erroneous backup can be accessed OK - is just the image having errors - Not influencing the data...?

How can check if the backup image tib - is free / No have this error, the bitmap corruption error...? 

I think checked the tib image with the bitmap corruption error, and was verified OK...!!!

If you still have the original smaller SSD from the clone operation, then run CHKDSK against all partitions on that SSD to ensure that there is no bitmap errors on that source drive.

Once you have created a backup image that includes any bitmap corruption, sorry but there is no easy resolution to help fix this as the images are read-only and cannot be altered or fixed without being able to restore the whole content to another drive then use CHKDSK on the restored drive.

Running validation for any backup .tib image will never fix this type of issue and is not intended to do so.  Validation only confirms that the image hasn't changed since it was written to disk - it cannot guarantee that the backup itself is without any corruption that was already present on the source drive that was selected for the backup.

I had SSD Small 240GB as C:

I cloned to SSD 1TB, and exchange disks

Now I have as C:/ the 1TB,...

Run in 1TB / Windows 10 Pro the..."Error Checking: the Check button"?

If the disk is free of Errors how do understand it...?

Are you able to boot into Windows without any problems on the 1TB SSD ?

If yes, then you should try the Error checking > Check button then take the option to Scan the drive.  If any issues are found, it will need to perform a restart to fix them, otherwise you will see an option to 'Show details' which will open the Windows Event Viewer to show you the results of the error checking (CHKDSK) scan.

Again, if you can boot into Windows, then you should be able to uninstall any Windows Updates that are causing you any problems.

The other option, would be to perform an in-place install of Windows 10 which would also repair any issues caused by Windows updates without losing any of your data or applications etc.

An in-place install is done by downloading the latest Windows 10 .ISO install image then running setup.exe from the image while booted into the Windows desktop.  This is the same as installing a new build of Windows when upgrading from such as 2004 to 21H1 builds.

Are you able to boot into Windows without any problems on the 1TB SSD ?

YES

Error checking > Check button

I WILL DO IT NOW

 

 

"If you still have the original smaller SSD from the clone operation, then run CHKDSK against all partitions on that SSD to ensure that there is no bitmap errors on that source drive."

can do this connected externally SATA TO USB Adapter cable?

Also,

"Once you have created a backup image that includes any bitmap corruption, sorry but there is no easy resolution to help fix this"

This corruption will be seen, if Validate the tib backup image, in other words, if Validated will indicate FAILURE/NON-VALID....?

If you have the correct type of SATA to USB adapter cable, then yes you can do this in that way.

Also,

No, filesystem corruption in the backup image is not detected by validation!

Validation is purely a mechanism to ensure that no changes have been made to the .TIB file.  When the .TIB file is written to disk by ATI, it has regular checksum values stored in each block of the file.  When validation is run, the blocks are re-read from disk and the checksum is recalculated for the blocks then compared with the stored checksum values.  If the checksums match, then the file is validated.

", then yes you can do this in that way."

the report after Check Errors, show if errors were detected...?

Also, 

I have to check Disk for errors like the:

corrupt partition bitmap 

and after correcting, then create the backup?

Yes to both questions
