Creating Universal Restore Thumbdrive From Premium

Thread needs solution

I created a bootable thumb drive from Premium which started out life as a Trial. "About" says Premium but the bootable program does not have Universal Restore available.

If one buys a Premium CD can one make a bootable thumb drive with Universal Restore from there?

Answer is no.
I have also failed to create one such media. My product is Acronis True Image 2015.
They say you have to install Win PE 5( download adk from Microsoft - about 2 GB).This will take about 6 GB of your C drive.
But you can very well remove it once your purpose is served, i.e after the universal boot media is created and an image backup is done.
Then Install the the 'Universal Media builder' (AcronisTrueImage2015_en-EU ISO Builder), which is 336 MB program to be downloaded from Acronis.
Then theris 'AcronisTrueImage2015_addons_en-US' to be downloaded and Installed.
Then
Start 'Run Universal Boot Media Builder' from the start menu, and follow the instructions.
I succeeded in creating one with the 'Default(Linux-based Media', but never a 'Windows PE based'
Please try these and try your luck.
If you want help from Acronis, it $20 per incident. It is quite objectionable because not even you customer care will give you an answer after one month.
