4 Checking for software updates
Each time you start the management console, Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 checks whether a new
version of the software is available on the Acronis Web site. If so, the software provides a link for
downloading a setup program of the new version.
To check for updates manually, start the management console and then click Help > Check for
updates. In that window, you also can disable the automatic checks for updates.
For information about updating Acronis Backup & Recovery 11, see the “Update” section (p. 24) (for
local installation in Windows) or the corresponding installation section (for other ways of
installation).
