Thread needs solution

After a succesfull update this week the F11 key (restore) does not work anymore
When the computer starts de screen with the F11 text is corrupt (weird text), F11 does not work, pressing "enter" starts the computer normal.
Deactivating F11, reboot, activating, reboot does not help

I'll let someone else answer who has spent more time troubleshooting the Acronis Startup Recovery Manager.

FYI:
I do not see the value of the Acronis Startup Recovery Manager. The bootable Rescue Media is available when needed, so I don't see any reason to allow the Acronis Startup Recovery Manager to modify the PC's boot. Acronis Startup Recovery Manager adds complexity and risk without any real value over using the bootable Rescue Media. If activated, it modifies your system drive Master Boot Record (MBR), which can cause problems with multi-boot managers and other low-level disk utilities. I prefer just to use the bootable Rescue Media when needed, either from CD or USB flash drive.
