Try using the other way. If you did this in Windows, try when booted from the Bootable media CD.

If you did this with the CD, then try from within Windows.

Usually, one of two ways will be successful.

If you continue to have issues, let us know the version of Acronis and which Windows OS.

No chance on both way's. The activation still failed :-(

I have Windows 7 and Acronis Home 2012 with Plus Packet.

I have a boot manager installed, Grub2. Is ist possible that Acronis have problems with boot manager?

Hello mabox and Grover,

Thank you for your posts and your help Grover.

mabox, let me help you with this issue.

We do not have problems with the Grub2 boot manager but you will need to perform additional steps in order for Acronis Startup Recovery Manager to work in this environment. Please check this KB article for instructions.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thank you.
