HELP - Can't Restore From ATI Backup - corrupt or locked??
I have ATI 2013, and am trying out ATI 2018. Trying to restore a user after a Windows reset, but having trouble. As you can see _b77_s1_v1 is the only backup that appears. Since the data I need is not in this backup, I tried to restore from _b76_*, and tried to add that to the list, but no success.
This is what I get:
I used the Lockhunter app to see if the file was in use, but it came back negative in all cases. Not sure what the last sentence of the message means; there are many "v" files from _b77. Should I move the TIB file(s) to another location on the NAS? My HD on the laptop doesn't have enough room for a 200+ GB file.
What can be done to restore anything from the "76" version? I was going to update to ATI 2018, but what's the point if all of these backups get corrupted? I'm backing up to a Synology NAS on my wireless network (in the same room). I tried to restore with ATI 2013 first, but got the same results.

Hi Steve,
Thanks for your prompt response.
I’m trying to get application setting files from the backups, which were done on this same computer. I had major problems as a result of a recent Windows 10 update, and had to do a reset which, removed all the apps, but was supposed to leave all the data...not exactly what happened.
I’ve reinstalled the major apps like Firefox and MS Office 2013, but need to get config info and history, bookmarks, passwords, etc.. When I tried to restore from the +”77” files the needed files were not in the backup, so I tried to get it from the earlier 76 set, but when I tried it, I got the error message.
I tried to use Explorer to find the TIB files, and double click them. As I went through the directory structure, a double-click took me down one level, and popped up the contents of that level and the following (see pic below), asking to "locate the last volume of the backup". I got down to the correct user profile (Henry) and tried to drag and drop folder to my Desktop, the pointer had the little + sign. This box kept popping up, but nothing new was appearing on the Desktop.
Finally, the backups were created with ATI 2014 (I forgot that I upgraded from 2013). After the Windows reset I had to reinstall the ATI, and only found the 2013 license key.

I have moved this discussion to the ATI 2018 forum at https://forum.acronis.com/forum/acronis-true-image-2018-forum/help-cant-restore-ati-backup in the hope that more people will see it, and since it does involve the 2018 version.
