Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the standalone version of Acronis True Image Home 2010?The standalone version of Acronis True Image Home 2010 is an exclusive recovery environment for restoring images. Additionally, it allows you to create images, clone hard disk drives, partition new hard disk drives and manage the Acronis Secure Zone® without having to boot into Windows. It has the same graphical interface as when you run Acronis True Image Home 2010 under Windows. There are two variants of the standalone version. The full variant is based on the Linux operating system and uses Linux drivers for getting access to all hardware devices. The safe variant is based on the DOS environment and doesn't provide you with an access to the USB, PCMCIA, SCSI, RAID devices and the network. We recommend you to use the safe variant only if the full one doesn't work. You can run the standalone version of Acronis True Image Home 2010 from bootable media (a CD-R(W) disc, a set of floppy diskettes, a USB flash card or a ZIP-diskette). You can also activate Acronis Startup Recovery Manager and boot your computer into the standalone version of Acronis True Image Home 2010 by pressing the F11 button when the computer boots up.
