Cannot create Rescue Media USB

Thread solved

Trying to create Rescue Media on a 32GB USB drive.  Acronis True Image Rescue Media Builder seem to work just fine.  Seemed to access drive and started writing, the then stopped and displayed the follow error:

FYI:  I only use Acronis to make full back ups of my C: and E: drives on my computer.  I don't make continuous backups.  I back up to separate physical drives in my computer (F: and G: drives on my computer).  I have a Dell XPS 8930 system.

I followed the instructions given in the Knowledge Base on how to create a System Report, but nothing happened, no report was generated that I could find.

The Base related that:
"In case if the program's main window does not open for any reason, launch the System Report generation tool from the Windows Start menu: Acronis - True Image - Tools and Utilities - Acronis System Report."

I tried this and it also did work.

I am trying to create Rescue Media for my system.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You.

Jerry

Jerry, welcome to these public User Forums.

My first suggestion would be to do a Repair Install of ATI 2020 application so that any issues caused by any missing files, corruption etc are resolved.

See KB 60915: Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office, Acronis True Image: repairing program settings - for details.

There is also an alternative option for creating rescue media using the MVP Assistant tool.

Hallo Jerry Mallard,

Wurde der USB Stick vorher mit "Fat32" formatiert?

Ich würde auf dem USB Stick eine 16 GB Partition erstellen und mit Fat32 formatieren.

Was the USB stick previously formatted with "Fat32"?

I would create a 16 GB partition on the USB stick and format it with Fat32.

Thanks for the suggestions.

FYI, the 32GB USB drive was formatted as FAT.

Re-installation of the Acronis software solved the problem.  I was able to create the Restore back-up.
