Also is Paragon an option to look into while restoring to dissimilar hardware. I want to make a fully updated backup of Win 8.1 which I can restore to dissimilar hardware. Whats your opinion IFL: Terabyte Image for Linux. It's a boot ISO/USB that can be used to backup any Windows/Linux OS disk/partitions offline. Function-wise, it's the same as Image for Windows. I have no experience with Paragon in terms of restoring to dissimilar hardware. But the truth is, i once restored a Windows 10 image to a different computer, it booted fine and installed all the drivers by itself. The result - a perfectly working OS on a computer with very different hardware. Not sure about Windows 8.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airstream_Bill Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 This is just Information for those who want it. This is for Windows 10 only. If you have a Full System Backup IMAGE made with Acronis and you can not use it to put your Computer back to that Acronis Image for whatever Reason do this as probably there is nothing wrong with you backup Image. Put your Windows Installation Media in and boot on it. Tell it to install Windows and take the Advanced option. DELETE ALL PARTITIONS when you have done this tell it NEXT. Wait until windows says it is Installing Files and up to 5 %. Then Click on the Close X in the upper right hand corner. It will say something???? SHUT DOWN YOUR Computer remove your Windows 10 installation media and Boot on you Acronis Recovery disk and perform you Disk Recovery as normal. This will also work if you Used Windows Image and it will not work for you. Of course you will be using your Windows 10 Recovery Tool or Windows 10 Installation Disk and then you pick out REPAIR. I will bet this works. PS: This is assuming that one backed up all the partitions. EFI, Recovery and Primary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you share the iso link for IFL. What software did you use to do this Yes, download the retail version of IFL. Extract it, run makedisk.exe. All you need is a serial number and name, and it will make a boot usb for you. I believe I used IFL to restore the Windows 10 image to a different computer. After restore, Windows will automatically install hardware drivers, and ask for a reboot. Do that, and your Windows should be working fine. However, it's best practice to restore to the same computer for which you made the disk image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen in Paragon backup and recovery 15 Home that it has feature which can restore to dissimilar hardware. Also in Paragon deployment Manager 11 we can create a master image and restore it to dissimilar hardware. Same feature with Acronis Universal Restore. But one must use Acronis Backup Advanced instead of true image to make an image. I can make ".wim" files rather easily and convert them to ".esd". Replace the ".wim" with the ".esd" in the window iso and use that to install windows but it is a tedious process and takes over 16 hours to complete. So I am searching for an alternative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Söze Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I find it interesting that while Acronis already released their True Image 2017 product, they seemed to have not accompanied it with a Cleanup Utility - when you uninstall the product, a lot of leftovers remain - especially their mobile backup component which I believe isn't part of their previous offerings (their Cleanup Utility is for .ver 2016, and will not remove the new components). No wonder everybody prefers to have the boot version of it, although I'd like to know - is there any performance loss in backup/restore when using any backup/restore software in the preinstallation environment as opposed to the full OS, aside from you not being able to use your system for anything else?

It gets into everything - startup entries, scheduled tasks, system services - why don't they allow the end-user to streamline & make their user experience with their software more controlled? Have an install mechanism to allow the user to choose the components they ONLY want installed, at least that cuts down the myriad of issues that will plague them in customer service if they know the select components disabled - hereby eliminating them from the issues.
