Segmentation Fault
Recently Acronis True Image 2019 failed me in a very disappointing way. I bought a new WD NVME 750 1TB SSD, and wanted to clone from Samsung 970 Pro 512 GB. Clone didn't work. Got error message:
Segmentation Fault.
Tried an offline Restore from archived backup....Segmentation Fault.
I read what I could find about it, but everything dates back to 2015 when there wasn't UEFI BIOS so much. Was able to restore back to Samsung NVME drive where system was originally stored as a test, but when I wiped drive the backup would finish....writing MBR, and then wouldn't report, then would switch to a Linux screen to summarize dump, and record actions for Acronis.....I tried five times, and then just gave up and re-installed Windows, a 2 day 30 hour affair.
Yikes Acronis disappointed, I have been using Acronis for 15 years and never had these problems...
Is there a way or workaround for future backup/restore
Thank you
Phillip

Thanks I'll try the WinPE media version. I indeed have been using the Linux version because of how uncomplicated creating the rescue disc, and using it has been. Oddly though when I cloned my OS from a Samsung M.2 SSD to Samsung NVME 970 pro, worked without any problems.
Thank you for your suggestion. Do you think it would be worth it to upgrade to Acronis 2020?

Philip, I would suggest holding off on any upgrade to 2020 at present as the next version, ATI 2021 is currently in Beta testing and will be released in early Autumn whereas 2020 will go out of support 30-days after 2021 is released generally!

When formatting a HDD using Aomei part assist. It for some reason formatted my boot drive WD NMVE drive.
Had a handy Acronis backup, and was back up in 20 mins.
Since changing to WinPE rescue media, Acronis has worked 100% of the time. Thanks for the tip, never too old to learn something.
