Back Up / Imaging a Compressed Partition

Thread needs solution

Does anybody know if the issue with TI Version 11 and prior related to backing up and/or Imaging a Windows NTFS compressed partition was fixed in TI 2013? See: http://kb.acronis.com/content/1811 Gut feel says no, but looking for confirmation. I have been trying to image a compressed NTFS drive onto a larger device and while the image completes ok, the resulting drive fails to boot properly. Pretty sure this is a compression thing. Bruce.

I'm pretty sure that 2013 and compressed drives is the same as previous versions.

Hallo everyone!

Collin, thanks for your help.
I have to inform you that normal support of compressed NTFS partition is still unavailable. And unfortunately I cannot give any information about when it could be resolved in the future. I am very sorry and hope for your understanding...

Hello Martin,

I've just tested the backup of an compressed partition with Acronis True Image 2016, it was created successfully. I would recommend you to install a trial version of Acronis True Image 2016 and check if it works for you.

Thank you,
