Windows 10: Acronis 2018 doens't backup all my partition.

Hi,

I have a dual boot computer with Acronis 2018 on windows 10 and Acronis 2010 on windows 7.

I mainly use windows 10 these days that has Acronis 2018 installed.
If I backup my windows 10 with Acronis 18 (within windows 10 itself) I find that there is about 14gb of my partition missing and a lot of desktop icons missing if I restore that partition. This is a full backup with no exclussions.

I can only use Acronis 2010 on windows 7 and it seems to backup the partition with windows 10 ok, so just wondering why is it that I can't backup properly with Acronis 2018 from within windows 10 itself.

Acronis 2010 has a more simple GUI that I find easier to understand than Acronis 2018 but it means restarting my computer and booting into windows 7 to use it.

I do have Macrium Reflect as well backups are find, but some trouble attempting TRIM on recovery on my SSD drive.

Opinions appreciated as to why Acronsi 2018 is not backing up my windows 10 partition totally?
Many Thanks
Joe

automatic Windows 10 and Acronis Backup version

Hi,

We got an offer from Acronis tru AVG which expires the 9th of july 2015, so I contacted them to ask them if this upgrade supports Windows 10, due to the fact that Windows 10 like their previous Windows 8.1 and 8.0 DOES NOT have a proper backup programme,
you can only back up your data with FILEHISTORY, period.

If you want a complete backup and restore your windows you'll need a programme like Acronis.

I contacted them tru CHAT and the conclusion was:

• the upgrade they offering was a beta version
• and they wait for Windows 10 becomes officially
• they advise me to wait till Acronis had a complete version
• and then upgrade to Windows 10

So you probably understand in which dilemma I am in,

If the Automatic Upgrade to Windows 10 is before Acronis Backup is ready, I can not Backup Windows 10 at all

I like to know what advise Microsoft will give in this situation

Thank you

 

HDD partition/swapping/backup

So I'm upgrading my system to i7, and acquiring another hdd so I can setup a RAID. Right now I have 2 partitions on my HDD, dual boot is all. I want to keep all my programs,pictures, music and documents but basically get rid of the OS and partitions in general so I can re-partition my RAID for OS, games, files. I got Acronis and did a backup to my external but when i load this backup, everything is going to go back the way it was before, OS, etc. Whats the easiest way to do this, just backup my program files, pictures, music Not create an exact image?

TIA

Duxx

 

System BACKUP Faled with REBOOT with ACRONIS

Hello Andersen,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are unable to make a backup using the Acronis software. This software is not designed by Microsoft so it is suggested to contact them if you are facing any issues with the third party software.
