Acronis has changed my hard drive icon
Hello,
Since installing Acronis True Image 2019 one of my drive icon's has changed. I was wondering how to revert it back to the original Winodws icon. I have tried other programs but nothing changes (or is missing)
Thanks

The changed icon is on Drive E. The drive isn't an external or USB drive. I also haven't created an Acronis Survival Kit either.

Lloyd, sorry but the only suggestion I can offer here is to see webpage How to Change Drive Icons in Windows
It is possible that Windows believes that your Drive E: is a removable drive for some reason but am not aware of ATI causing such changes.
Searching further on google it looks like your Drive E: icon is saying this is a network drive! Hence the pipe / connector in the icon image.

Tried the program before, just ended up with a blank icon.
Just edited the registry by removing "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Acronis\TibMounter64\tib_mounter_service.exe" in the string & the issue has been resolved. It's back to the original icon.

Do you by chance have the drive set as hot swappable in the bios/UEFI?

Nope I've always had that disabled for drives that don't have hot-swappable bays.

Hi there I can confirm this happens erratically as reported in the ATIH 2021 beta @Steve. It would take some time to find the thread.
