Backup Image missing once I rebooted Windows 8?

Thread needs solution

I created a Acronis True Image 2014 bootable USB drive and use it to boot and backup my Windows 8 notebook. Once it finished the backup, I rebooted the notebook and cannot find the backup file. I tried repeating the booting and backup again once the backup has successfully completed, this time I make sure to check (still in the Acronis TIH application running off the bootable USB drive) the backup file is there (in the same HDD but a different partition that is not marked to backup). Again once I boot up normally into Windows 8, the file is missing again!

Please help!

Thanks.

Michael,
Check to see if you have two partitions on the usb drive. You may be looking in the wrong partition.
Windows Disk Management will display the partitions. Don't use Windows Explorer but use Windows Disk Mangement.
