5 Getting to know Acronis True Image OEM Quick
Backup
5.1 Program workspace
Starting Acronis True Image OEM Quick Backup takes you to the Welcome screen. This screen
provides quick access to backup and recovery features, as well as highlights any issues with your
system's protection.
Your system is considered fully protected when it is backed up and a bootable rescue media is
created. If some of the aforementioned have not been done, Acronis True Image OEM Quick Backup
shows the following links allowing to solve the protection issues: Back Up My System, Create
Bootable Rescue Media. After an issue is solved, the corresponding link disappears.
Clicking the items in the right pane takes you to the corresponding screen where you can either start
the backup or recovery task immediately or make further selections.
The My favorites area in the right pane lists the features you have used most often and provides
shortcuts to them in case you would like to use the features again. The Recent backups area lists the
backups you have recently run and allows you to update the backup archives with just one click.
You can easily access the Acronis True Image OEM Quick Backup features through the so called
sidebar occupying the left side of the screen. Choosing an item on the sidebar takes you to a screen,
where you can access the corresponding features.
