Use Acronis Universal Restore
Using Universal Restore (provided by separately purchased Acronis Plus Pack) allows recovering an
image of your system partition on a computer with dissimilar hardware.
Recover chosen files and folders
If you are not going to recover the system, but only want to repair damaged files, select Recover
chosen files and folders.
You can recover files from disk/partition images only if they have the FAT or NTFS file systems.
11.1.4 Selecting a disk/partition to recover
The selected archive file can contain images of several partitions or even disks. Select which
disk/partition to recover.
During a single session, you can recover several partitions or disks, one by one, by selecting one disk
and setting its parameters first and then repeating these actions for every partition or disk to be
recovered.
Disk and partition images contain a copy of track 0 along with the MBR (master boot record). It
appears in this window in a separate line. You can choose whether to recover the MBR and track 0 by
selecting the corresponding box. Recover the MBR if it is critical to your system booting.
When MBR recovery is chosen, the "Recover disk signature" box will appear in the bottom left corner
at the next step. Recovering disk signature may be desirable due to the following reasons:
1. Acronis True Image Home creates scheduled tasks using the signature of the source hard disk. If
you recover the same disk signature, you don't need to re-create or edit the tasks created
previously.
2. Some installed applications use disk signature for licensing and other purposes.
3. If you use Windows Restore Points, they will be lost when the disk signature is not recovered.
