How to stop/prevent TI from modify any of my backup?

Thread needs solution

hi

Have reinstalled windows 8 on my pc. Know how to reinstall user-data from backup. Bacup is on a external disk. After instaling TI15 , how can I bee 100% sure that ti do not modify any of the backup file. I do not want the backup  running just now.

TI2015 does not modify any already stored backups. It is also good practice to remove external drives whenever they are not in use. When you leave your external drives connected, ransomware could scramble also your backups and make them thus useless.

 

Ditto to Berti's comments.  At most, Acronis can append new files to backups (additional incrementals, differentials, or a new full), but unless you tell it to delete a backup or backup files, it will not/cannot change already created backup files.
