Acronis 2013 Plus Pack Won't Install on Windows 8

Thread needs solution

I have a current license of Acronis 2012 Plus Pack, and when I upgraded my operating system to Windows 8, the upgrade required the uninstall of Acronis 2012, which I did.

When I purchased the 2013 Plus Pack upgrade and tried to install it I get the message the "A Full Version Must be Installed"

All the help documentation suggests that it is possible to provide the serial number of the previously installed product, but the installation never give me that option.

What do I need to do to get this installed?

Much thanks.

Did you install the 2013 main program first?

There was no link to download anything but the 2013 Plus Pack - I used the "upgrade" Option from the Acronis Web Site the (under my accounts that shows my installed licenses) so I assumed it would give me the correct product.

In order to install any version of the Plus Pack, you must have the same version of the main program installed first.
The upgrade offer you responded to is only the upgrade for the Plus Pack addon. You would also need to upgrade the 2012 main program to 2013 to be able to install the 2013 Plus Pack.
