Uninitialized Devices

Thread needs solution

"One or more of your removable disks may not have started at the moment. Click 'Yes' to wait for full startup of the devices (recommended). Click 'No' to ignore uninitialized devices and continue."

So, I'm trying to clone my files thru acronis true image then suddenly the statement above popped up. I already clicked 'Yes' for several times but the window with that statement still pops out and when I clicked 'No' my laptop will just restart on its own but nothing happens. Could you please give me some advices what should I do then?

Donna, welcome to these public User Forums.

Sorry but more information is needed to understand this issue here?

What actual version / build of Acronis True Image are you using there?
Is it ATI 2020 #25700 as per this forum?

What are you trying to clone here?  Files cannot be cloned but disks can be?

From your description you are attempting to clone from a laptop but doing this from within Windows given it wants you to restart.  This is not recommended.

Please see KB 56634: Acronis True Image: how to clone a disk - and review the step by step guide given there.

Note: the first section of the above KB document directs laptop users to KB 2931: How to clone a laptop hard drive - and has the following paragraph:

It is recommended to put the new drive in the laptop first, and connect the old drive via USB. Otherwise you will may not be able to boot from the new cloned drive, as Acronis True Image will apply a bootability fix to the new disk and adjust the boot settings of the target drive to boot from USB. If the new disk is inside the laptop, the boot settings will be automatically adjusted to boot from internal disk. As such, hard disk bays cannot be used for target disks. For example, if you have a target hard disk (i.e. the new disk to which you clone, and from which you intend to boot the machine) in a bay, and not physically inside the laptop, the target hard disk will be unbootable after the cloning.
