2.3 Specifying credentials for Acronis services
Acronis Backup & Recovery 11 Agent for Windows runs as service. When installing this component,
you need to specify the account under which the agent's service will run.
You can either create a dedicated user account or specify an existing account of a local or domain
user.
If you choose to create a dedicated user account for the service (recommended), the setup program
will create the following user account:
Acronis Agent User
The newly created account is given the following privileges:
The account is assigned the Log on as a service, Adjust memory quotas for a process, and
Replace a process level token user rights.
The account is included in the Backup Operators and Administrators groups.
If you choose to specify an existing local or domain user account—for example, .\LocalUser or
DomainName\DomainUser—make sure that the account is a member of the Backup Operators
group before proceeding with the installation. The setup program will assign the above listed user
rights to such account.
If the machine is part of an Active Directory domain, make sure that the domain's security policies do
not prevent the account from having the above listed user rights.
Important: After the installation, do not specify a different user account for the agent service. Otherwise, the
agent may stop working.
2.4 Unattended installation

to the interactive mode.
