TIH Scheduled Backups do not Run in Sleep mode - Solution
I have a solution to this issue that many have reported in these forums. It will work for all versions of TIH. (Maybe some would consider it a workaround).
What is required to have something wake the PC up so that backups will execute and not rely on Acronis Scheduler to do that.
I found a program called 'Wake on Standby' that in its simplest form will do just that, and even put the PC back to sleep after backups are done. You can even choose to keep the monitor off when it is woken up. Best of all it is free!
(How about having the PC wake you up playing Pandora?).
It has amazing flexibility, and will even allow multiple instances to run if you want the PC woken up for different jobs at different times. I have tested it briefly and it works well for what I need.
