Changing SID during restore of Windows disk image

Thread needs solution

Does Universal Restore need to be installed in order to find and use the "Change SID after recovery"? I just upgraded my installation from Backup & Recovery 10.0 to 11.5 and the option to change SID after restore is no longer listed in "Recovery options..." under "Additional Settings".

I performed a full disk image backup and must change the SID for the machine after restore...

The answer is "no". Option to change SID is hidden if Backup&Recovery detects that there is no bootable Windows OS in the archive selected for recover. It may happen if not all system partitions are included in the backup (apparently not your case), if archive is located on CD, tape or removable USB drive or due to bug in the code. In the latter case if you can prepare an image of the system with all personal data removed, it may facilitate investigation.

I had a machine fail. When I tried to restore files to windows 8.1 I could not! The SID prevent me from seeing the folders! I had to find my old version of True Image in order to use my backup files. This must be fixed our your new software is useless. I am using the older versions of your software!
