restore from multiple backups

Thread needs solution

I'm using Acronis® True Image Home® version 11.0 (build 8,022). There are 4 seperate incremental/differential backups and 1 full backup taken at different dates. I'd like to restore all unique files from all the backups regardless of the date at one time without having to go thru each image individually. The restore GUI / wizard only lets you choose 1 image at a time. Is there a command line interface or another method to choose the directory to restore and have files restored from all the images at once without having to go thru each .tib individually?
Thanks

You can't do exactly what you are wanting, but the closest would be to mount the last incremental image and drag and drop the files.

Obviously this won't work if they are program files that require a registry entry to run.

I don't do incremental/differential backups, for exactly this reason, so I can't say for sure if there's no other way to do it. But the concept behind a differential backup is you need the original full backup plus at least one of the differential backups to do a restore. With incremental you need all the incremental backups in sequence, thus you will need all the .tib files to restore to the latest state with incremental.
