How to stop ADD12 from rebooting after Clone Completed??
I have ADD12 build 12.0.3223
How can I stop ADD12 from rebooting my computer when the disk cloning process is completed?
In the ADD12 online manual, it states that it will shut the system down, but mine reboots. I have a multi-boot system and the default reboot is to GRUB/Ubuntu 14.x, not BCD. ( I'm a casual Linux user only. I do not know how to get it to boot directly to windows boot selection menu. But it is ok as Linux is fine for email, internet, etc)
Cloning a disk takes a long time, hours. If I'm not right there at the moment of the reboot, Linux boots. I shut the machine down from Linux, disconected the drives, and tested them both in the new machine that did work before the cloning. Both source & cloning drives become usless for some reason I do not understand. These were Win 10 drives with 3 partitions; System, Windows, Recovery.
I did a test with a Win10 only install, on small drives, 32K SSD's. It only too about 20 minutes for teh cloing to complete. So I was there to make sure the system stayed off. Those drive worked fine. So it is the reboot Linux that dose something. I just need to know how to stop ADD12 from rebooting.
If this is helpful, below ....
Current Win 10 Pro power settings:
Power button = Shut Down
Sleep Button = Sleep
Shutdown settings:fast startup, sleep, hibernate, lock, all checked.
Thanks for any help.

Never tried Disk Director either - seems like it has not been updated in awhile though and that's much too long for my liking...
Acronis Disk Director 12 (Build # 3270, English, 252.3 MB) 2015-12-29
I do have a license, but never felt compelled to try it as I use free software for paritioning which does the job nicely and safely. Didn't realize you could clone with Disk Director though, but seeing as it's been a year since the last update, it feels like support is lacking.
You may want to try contacting support though. Acronis recently changed the support period from 30 days to 2 years from release. Disk Director doesn't have an end of life date listed so I would assume it is an actively supported product at this time and should not cost for a technical support case with the new changes to the support policy:
