Acronis True Image 2018 or 2019 English versions for Windows laptop with Japanese language pack installed and Japanese as primary language

Thread needs solution

Hello, I lived in Japan for many years and bought a Windows PC over there. I also own Japanese version of some software programs. I moved to North America and bought a Windows 10 laptop. Of course, the English version of the Windows 10 Pro OS was pre-installed. I added the Japanese language pack and selected it as the primary language. As I am in North America, if I buy the English version of Acronis True Image 2019, will it be fully compatible with my current setup? Will Japanese version of software programs and files with Japanese filename be backed up/cloned properly? Do I need to buy the Japanese version of Acronis True Image?

Peter, welcome to these User Forums.

I would recommend contacting Acronis directly for your questions about support for Japanese language components etc.  You can do this as a Presales question if you follow the information given in the Useful Links > How to get support? section of the forum pages.

ATI is produced as a Japanese application so I would expect that version would have full support for all the features and characteristics of the language.  I have no knowledge or experience whether the same would be true for the English version tho' would expect there to be no real issues for doing disk & partition type backups as these work at a sector level, rather with files & folders.

Hello peter,

We do not have a special Japanese version of Acronis True Image. Acronis True Image can switch to multiple languages in the Settings tab, including Japanese.

Yes, your files and folders in Japanese should be backed up without any issues.
