The first thing that shold be done is to create a bootable media device so you can access the program in case your computer becomes unbootable. See our review of how to make a bootable USB drive here.
For this review of Acronis True Image Home, an image of the hard drive will be created and restored. Once that task is complete, you can schedule a full or incremental backup to occur at the intervals that will keep data safe. Alternatively, you can use the new Nonstop backup feature and restore individual files or folders from any given time with the new Time Explorer feature included with the backup utility.
Acronis has added a Nonstop backup feature that backs up your files continuously. Combine that with the new Acronis Time Explorer and you can restore a file to any given time with a quick click of the mouse. True Image has an online backup feature to keep important data safe off site, Plus Pack to restore images to different hardware and Virtual and Dynamic disk support. True Image is truly a top-notch data backup and recovery solution.
On initial startup, Acronis told me that my system was not fully protected and that I needed to backup my system so naturally I clicked on Back Up My System.
The next screenshot asks what to back up. There are a few different partitions on this computer. I could choose to backup or image the entire drive but for the purpose of this review, I just chose the main C drive and the Data drive. This backup step will create an image of the main drive and the data drive.
The next screen asks where to put the backup archive. I chose to make a new archive on an External hard drive.
The next screen shows a summary of what Acronis True Image Home 2010 is about to perform. It looked good to me so naturally I smacked the Proceed button.
This next screenshot shows the task in progress. Looks like it will create a 14.5 Gigabyte image in about 11 minutes.
When it was done, it told me so.
If the need ever arises to restore the image, Acronis makes that simple too. Click on the Disk Recovery option and select a backup to recover.
I chose the image that was just created.
Then there is a choice to recover whole disks and partitions or chosen files and folders. I selected to recover whole disks and partitions that will re-image restore the image created with Acronis True Image, restoring the computer to its original state.
Then I had to choose the items to recover. I chose to recover everything that was backed up on the original hard drive image.
Once all of the settings were completed, the summary screen shows what Acronis True Image 2010 is about to accomplish. There is a definite reboot required so I quickly saved this page and smacked the proceed button once again.
The computer rebooted and very quickly restored the image in low level mode. Acronis successfully restored the computer to its original state which is no surprise because they had that perfected a few versions ago.
Once the image is tested, use the new Acronis scheduler to schedule backups as you see fit. There are many different backup scenarios to choose from. The time and frequency of backups is based on your particular needs.
