File backups contain files from more than one user account

Thread needs solution

A Win 7 Pro PC with TI 2010 build 7046 has two user accounts defined – one with Admin and one with User privileges.
A file backup of My Documents from User has the UAC call for confirmation of Admin’s password. No problem there.
However, inspection of the backup shows backups of My Documents from both User AND Admin.
DAK pls if is this by design or a bug?

Hello Max,

Let me shed some light on the issue.

The thing is that in your case Acronis True Image will run the task with Administrator credentials you've entered and will back up the whole Documents folder despite you've run it in User account.

I'll forward your request to the appropriate department, so probably in future versions of Acronis True Image a different method of tasks handling will be implemented.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you.
