If Windows won’t load, this feature allows you to run Acronis True Image Home 2011 Netbook
Edition by itself to recover damaged partitions.
To be able to use Acronis Startup Recovery Manager at boot time:
Click Tools & Utilities on the menu bar and select Acronis Startup Recovery Manager
Click the Activate button
Attention
When Acronis Startup Recovery Manager is activated, it overwrites the master boot record (MBR)
with its own boot code. If you have any third-party boot managers installed, you will have to
reactivate them after activating the Startup Recovery Manager. For Linux loaders (e.g. LiLo and
GRUB), you might consider installing them to a Linux root (or boot) partition boot record instead of
an MBR before activating Acronis Startup Recovery Manager.
If a failure occurs, turn on the computer and press F11 when you see the "Press F11 for Acronis
Startup Recovery Manager" message. This will start a standalone version of Acronis True Image
Home 2011 Netbook Edition that differs only slightly from the complete version. Browse for a backup
containing an image of your system partition and recover your system.
Disk letters in standalone Acronis True Image Home 2011 Netbook Edition might sometimes differ from the way
Windows identifies drives. For example, the D: disk identified in the standalone Acronis True Image Home 2011
Netbook Edition might correspond to the E: disk in Windows. The disk labels and information on partition sizes,
file systems, drive capacities, their manufacturers, and model numbers can help in correctly identifying the disks
and partitions.
4.8 Backup protection dialog box
A backup file can be protected with a password. You can set password protection in backup options
while creating a backup.
If you try to recover data from a password-protected backup, mount it or append an incremental
backup to such a backup, the program will ask for the password in a special window, allowing access
only to authorized users. In this case, you must specify the correct password for the selected backup
file. Only then will you be able to proceed with the selected operation.
