TIH 2012 Installed but cannot update
Whenever I try to create a boot disk or update the software, I receive an error message that "the product has not been installed correctly". I have tried to manually uninstall and reinstall, used the cleanup utility and reinstall to no avail. I can do backups and recovery without, as far as I can tell, any issues.
After reading some of the forum activity, it appears that version 2012 may be the "nail in the coffin" for Acronis. Two questions -- First, is there a fix to my problem without having to repeat the basic steps (e.g. uninstall and cleanup)? Note: I am comfortable editing the registry if I know what to look for. Second, if this is it for Acronis, what other backup program would you recommend?
Thanks in advance for any help ...

Thanks, I forgot about the ISO file. That helps with the boot disk. However, I still cannot update the software. I did try the repair option and that did not work either. I suspect there is something in the registry that is blocking the uninstall action for the previous version. However, that should not cause the error message when I try to update since it would not be looking for the uninstall at that point. Any other suggestions or thoughts?
Thanks again in advance for any help ...

Am I experiencing a unique problem OR is there so much wrong with TIH 2012 that there is little good experience from which to make suggestions/recommendations?

Additional information ... I tried to uninstall TIH 2012 using Perfect Uninstaller. I have used this software a number of times without any problems. In fact, it has done a good job of removing all traces of the "uninstalled" program, much better than the Windows "uninstall" feature in Control Panel. However, when I uninstall TIH 2012, my Windows installation becomes corrupt and the only option I have is to use the Windows Vista disk to repair my installation. When I do that, it restores the "old" version of TIH 2012 and I am back to where I started ... "the product has not been installed correctly".
Any help would be greatly appreciated ... Thanks in advance ...

Hi,
My computer chucked a Hissy Fit and I had to reinstall, but when I installed PC Backup & Recovery 2011 it would not connect to the server. I downloaded build 6492 from the web but it has the same problem it states it cannot connect to the server.
Any Ideas???
