Acronis freezes after upgading to Windows 10
I read older threads by others complaining of the same or similar problems but I never saw any resolutions or updates to this problem. I've also screened Acronis knowledge bases for help. When i try to contact support at Acronis their website won't let me.
In short, when i try to clone my HD, which worked fine before the upgrade, the system hangs unpredictably at diffeent stages of the cloning process often hanging up my computer as well a the computer itself.. One person in one of the older threads said to request a free upgrade, even if your version is not entitled to one (mine isn't) but i can't even reach anyone. Anyone got a phone number or email address for thee guys that does not require paying for support? i feel completely ripped off.

You should also run chkdsk /f /r on both drives before the clone to make sure there are no dirty sectors which can prevent a clone from completing. Somewhere along the line of your upgrade to Windows 10, some disk corruption may have occured and cleaning that up might just be all you need. I would also launch an elevated command prompt from the Windows OS (before cloning) and run sfc /scannow to check for OS integrity (won't hurt and might help). Then try cloning again with Steve's recommendations using the recovery media.
