Because the Acronis software loads outside Windows if avoids any other program interference when you create a backup and according to the Acronis article it should avoid the error you are getting when running the backup inside Windows.įor whatever reason, your image is not showing up.for me at least. Running Acronis from the flash drive doesn't do any changes to the installed Windows unless you use it to do a Restore. If it boots you will see an image similar to this: What should I see happen? How does this fix my problem? Will I see a normal window after the USB starts? Do I then try to run the Acronis program? Sorry you have to take my hand but I don't want to screw up my computer for normal activities.
