Need help with creating bootable media, and how to use acronis after booting from such for recovery

Thread needs solution

I've used acronis for recovering hard drive fails for years. But, I was given a BART WinPE boot CD or USB drive to start up that had acronis on it. I've been trying to build a repair kit and or boot media for a couple of days now, and am getting nowhere. I had in mind to use it in case of a total hard drive failure It might be stupidity on my part, but I'm stuck. Is there a step by step guide to doing this somewhere on the forum please?

Stuart, welcome to these public User Forums.

Do you have a valid license / serial number for Acronis True Image?
If yes, for what version of the application?

BART PE is somewhat ancient these days and was only used with older / obsolete versions of ATI before easier methods of creating Windows PE media became available.

All of the normal Acronis Rescue Media is capable of recovering from a total hard drive failure or doing a bare metal recovery.
