Operation Manual

12. When recovery is complete, exit the standalone version of Acronis True Image 2016, remove the

rescue media. Boot from the recovered system partition. After you check that you have

recovered Windows to the state you need, restore the original boot order.

5.4 Recovery options

You can configure options for the disk/partition and file recovery processes. After you installed the

application, all options are set to the initial values. You can change them for your current recovery

operation only or for all further recovery operations as well. Select the Save the settings as default

check box to apply the modified settings to all further recovery operations by default.

Note, that disk recovery options and file recovery options are fully independent, and you should

configure them separately.

If you want to reset all the modified options to their initial values that were set after the product

installation, click the Reset to initial settings button.

5.4.1 Disk recovery mode

With this option you can select the disk recovery mode for image backups.

 Recover sector-by-sector - select this check box if you want to recover both used and unused

sectors of disks or partitions. This option will be effective only when you choose to recover a

sector-by-sector backup.

5.4.2 Pre/Post commands for recovery

You can specify commands (or even batch files) that will be automatically executed before and after

the recovery procedure.

For example, you may want to start/stop certain Windows processes, or check your data for viruses

before recovery.

To specify commands (batch files):

 Select a command to be executed before the recovery process starts in the Pre-command field.

To create a new command or select a new batch file, click the Edit button.

 Select a command to be executed after the recovery process ends in the Post-command field. To

create a new command or select a new batch file, click the Edit button.

Please do not try to execute interactive commands, i.e. commands that require user input (for

example, "pause"). These are not supported.
