E:\Backups folder.
4. Restore files
trueimagecmd /filerestore /filename:E:\Backups\Myproject.tib

In our example, the Acronis Secure Zone contains two archives. The older archive #1
consists of one full (base) file-level backup created on 4/2/2007 at 3:52. The second archive
contains a base file-level backup with two increments. You can restore data from any backup
as follows:
trueimagecmd /filerestore /asz:2 /index:2 /target_folder:e:
• This will restore files and folders from the backup created on 4/4/2007 at 6:31 PM with
their original paths to the root of partition E.
