Survival Kit Question Acronis True Image 2021
Using a custom/full I backup C drive to an internal E drive on Sat. On Sun. I do a Full backup of the entire PC, which is C drive and E drive, to an external F drive so I can move it out of my house. True Image 2019 would back this up without a problem. It would show both the C and E drives on the backup in the F drive. I would keep 3 backups in the F drive at a time. With just loading 2021 I added the survival kit to the external F drive. Now when doing the full computer backup it only pulls the C drive into F drive

Steve, I selected the Entire PC (Gudenau-PC is the name of the backup) when choosing what I am backing up to the external hard drive that has the survival kit included. I misspoke when I said it only backs up just the C drive. Both E and C drives are there but when I look at the files in the backup there are only 3 folders in the backup of the E drive, Music, Recovery & Temp_dvd, that's it. All of the info is there for the C drive. When I go to the backup for C drive and look at it, in E drive, everything for C drive is there. When doing an Entire PC backup shouldn't I see C drive AND the backup of C drive in the E drive? Another question, I have the and Entire PC backup to keep 3 backups, do the same for the backup of C drive. I have backed up the Entire PC computer multiple times but it only has 1 backup retained, Gudenau-PC.tibx. Is having the survival kit included on the external drive only allowing one backup?

Kirk, by default Acronis excludes all .tib & .tibx backup archive files from being backed up, so unless you change the Exclusions options these will not be included.

Steve, Ok, understand now about the backup of a tibx. With the survival kit does it only allow 1 backup?

Kirk, the survival kit is essentially the normal 'Simple' rescue media installed on your external HDD, so you can make as many backups as your storage space allows.
