How to use a WinPE recovery medium

Thread needs solution

I've seen lots of articles about creating receovy media but I can't find any on using them (although I'm sure the articles exist).

I created an "Entire PC" backup and wanted to test a WEinPE recovery.  It looks like I cannot test by recovering a single file or folder.  Is that correct?  I have to do a full PC recovery from the backup file?  AHTI allows recovery of individual files or folders from that backup.  Is there a way to do the same from the WinPE system?

Patrick, you should be able to perform any of the types of recovery that are available in the Windows version of Acronis when you are booted from the standard or WinPE rescue media.

The main difference between the standard, Linux based, rescue media and WinPE media is the underlying OS environment that is being loaded before the Acronis application GUI is presented.  Other than that OS environment, the application works exactly the same though there may be differences in support for some resources such as network cards and devices etc.

Take a look at post: 117004: Great Acronis "How-To" videos and other Acronis Resources which includes some items related to using bootable media.
