Importing back ups into Acronis.

Thread needs solution

Hi, i have Acronis installed on my C:\ drive, and my USB drive's (X:\) incremental backups are going to a second (G:\) internal SATA drive.

If i need to reinstall my Operating System (and therefore the Acronis program as well), how can i 'import' my incremental backups into the new Acronis installtion, so that i wont need to create a brand new backup of my USB drive, and just carry on making incremental back ups like i was before the OS re install?

Thanks for your help.

After installation, MachineId and InstanceID will change, and you need to change them to their new vaules in archive's meta file that is located in meta folder along with .tib files.
