Update Acronis True Image Home 2012 Plus Pack to True Image 2018

Thread needs solution

Hello community,

I have the

"Acronis True Image Home 2012 Standard (German)" and

"Acronis True Image Home 2012 Plus Pack Standard" (German).

Now I would like to buy the update to the 2018 version. Can I simply install the update over my old installation?

How does that go?

Thank you Thomas Selendt

With a version of TI that old it would be best to uninstall TI 2012, the Pluspack and perform a clean install of 2018. Ti 2018 includes everything that you currently have and more in the way of features.

Ditto to Thomas' reply.

Please see the ATI 2018 User Guide where it states:

Upgrading from old versions of Acronis True Image

If your current version of Acronis True Image is Acronis True Image 2017 or Acronis True Image 2018, the new version will simply update it; there is no need to remove the old version and reinstall the software. If your current version is older, we recommend that you remove the current version, first.

Please keep in mind that the backups created by the later program version may be incompatible with the previous program versions. Therefore, if you roll back Acronis True Image to an older version, you likely will have to re-create the backups using the older version. We strongly recommend that you create new bootable media after each product upgrade.
