how to copy an image from the Secure Zone?

Thread needs solution

Hi there,

I made an image in the Secure Zone of my laptop. Now, I will sell it (without Windows 7) and want to store the image on a external HD, but I cannot find any option to do that. Is the only way to restore the system and make a new backup?

Or did I missed out something?

Using True Image Home 2009 on Windows 7 Prof.

Many thanks!

Hello Brasax!

Welcome on Acronis Forum, we're glad you joined us!

Unfortunately there is no way to extract the image from Acronis Secure Zone by means of Acronis True Image Home 2009. You can do it, though, with the help of Acronis True Image Home 2010. When you create Acronis Secure Zone, an icon appears under My Computer in the Other section. Double-clicking on the Acronis Secure Zone icon opens the zone and you can view all the backup archives it contains. You can also open the zone by right-clicking on its icon and choosing Open in the shortcut menu. Double-clicking on an archive opens it and shows all backups (full, incremental, differential) belonging to the archive. Right-clicking on a specific backup opens the shortcut menu allowing to choose a desired operation – mount (for image archives), recover, validate, update, remove the backup, and view the backup's details. If Acronis Secure Zone is password-protected, any operation except viewing backup details will require entering the password. Double-clicking on a backup will start the default operation (Mount for image backups and Recovery for data backups).

You can find the demo version of Acronis True Image Home 2010 here and test whether this solution suits you and can perform the above operations. All information regarding its functions can be found in the User's Guide

I tried the 2010, but there is still no way to copy the data. Sorry to say that, but this is really bad. Why are you not implementing such a feature? I think, i'm not the only one who needs this..

EDIT: there is a way. By right-click on the backup in Acronis, there is a menue to move it to another disk..

Hi,

Use Linux boot CD/DVD to copy images from secure zone. Linux will automatically mount the secure partition and you can able to view/download/upload images in secure zone.
