McAfee and Acronis Conflict?

Thread needs solution

Is there a conflict between Acronis True Image Home and McAfee firewall?

My Nonstop Backup feature doesn’t work. As soon as I turn it on it pauses and never starts. If I restart my PC, it will come one briefly while the PC is booting but pauses again within 5 seconds.

When I manually open the Acronis ap it will not open without McAfee stopping it and asking for my permission to do so. I have check “Always Allow” in the firewall setting but this doesn’t seem to solve the problem.

Since McAfee stops Acronis from opening without my permission I wondered if it was interfering with Nonstop Backup since it hasn’t backed up any files; it shows 0.0GB.

Has anyone had this problem? I’ve read the info on “Nonstop Backup” that say it is programed to pause for reasons that I still can’t figure out how to correct.

Thanks,
Peter
