Restore and Disc Signature
Acronis True Image 2019
Windows 10 Pro
My single physical disc is GPT, Windows 10 boot UEFI
I have a partition backup (not full disc) of one physical drive which has my C boot partition.
An Adobe update damaged my Adobe cloud installation. Therefore, I need to restore the C boot partition.
When I restore the C boot partition to the same disc, I plan to ONLY select the C boot partition - NOT the MBR & Track, Recovery, and System partition check boxes. Will Acronis leave the disc signature unchanged since any change will effect some applications which get upset if the disc signature changes?
Recall that my disc is GPT so does not use the MBR. I think the disc signature is stored in the MBR. Therefore, it is unclear to me under what circumstances one would ever check the MBR & Track checkbox and why?
Thank you for the feedback.
