TI 2015 to TI 2021

Thread needs solution

I got the perpetual license version of Acronis True Image 2021 to upgrade/replace my perpetual license Acronis True Image 2015.

Am I best advised do a complete uninstall of TI 2015 and run the Cleanup Tool before installing the TI 2021?

Thanks,
DW

That is the Acronis recommendation given the significant differences between 2015 and 2021.

You do not need 2015 to be installed in order to do the Upgrade but you will need the license / serial for both 2021 and 2015 to activate the new version when installing.

You can use the 'Add existing backup' option if you want to bring any of your .tib backup files into the ATI 2021 GUI and then reconfigure their settings.  You would select the most recent .tib file for this.

Thanks Steve.

Do I need to save a copy of C:\ProgramData\Acronis\TrueImageHome\Scripts for TI 2021?

You can do so but would only use as a last resort because of the differences that may exist in the format of these script .tib.tis files over 6 versions!
