acronis true image 2013 reset image name and comment

Thread needs solution

Hi all! I have version 2013 and faced with such a problem:

When create image of system i've change image name and comment, but when I do a reboot - name is cleared. Comment does not change.

And when I go to a bootable CD to change the name and comment, do reboot - everything disappears. it is a bug or a feature?

All backups occur (in Windows) occurs via a backup task.
After the name has created a backup, that name cannot be changed and task continue to be used.

An existing comment can only be changed from inside Widows and from inside the Acrronis Backup EXplorer.
This link will lead you to where you can edit the comment of an existing backup.

When booting from the TI Recovery CD, the comments are only for when a new backup is created and are not editable.
