Recover using bootable media

Thread needs solution

When I recover my disks using Acronis 2020 from bootable media, after Acronis loads, can I remove the bootable media?

Rick, yes, you should be able to do so as the offline application should be loaded into memory unless your computer is really constrained for memory.  This can often be necessary when booting from USB rescue media on a system with only one available USB port where the media needs to be removed in order to connect a backup drive, though this is a lot easier when a Survival Kit is being used which combines both rescue media and storage drive in the one unit.
