1.7 Upgrading Acronis True Image 2016
If your current version of Acronis True Image is Acronis True Image 2014 or Acronis True Image 2015,
the new version will simply update it; there is no need to remove the old version and reinstall the
software. If your current version is older, we recommend that you remove the current version, first.
Your backups created with a previous version of Acronis True Image are completely compatible with

We strongly recommend that you create new bootable media after each product upgrade.
