When the menu loads for the Acronis media, select the top option – in my case this was listed as “Acronis True Image 2013”.

Ensure the external storage containing the backup is connected and powered on.

Boot from the Acronis bootable media (hold the Option key while booting and manually select the media being used, or hold Command + C to boot directly from optical media).

Restoring the partition from the TIB file I’m hoping to be able to test this with a Windows 10 install soon I’ll add to the post when I have done so. My backups are stored on an external drive connected via Firewire.

I have verified the process described here using Acronis True Image 2013 for Windows, Windows 7 Pro SP1 64-bit, installed on an early 2011 MacBook Pro running OS X El Capitan.

Recovery media for the version of Windows being restored (can be full install media or a recovery disk).

Licensed Acronis True Image bootable media (ideally for the same version used to create the backup, but this is not a hard requirement).

Connected external storage with TIB file to be restored (using the highest transfer-rate interface available).

Based on this forum thread, I’m not the only person who’s run into this issue either.įortunately, despite being an unsupported configuration I have been able to reproducibly restore a working Bootcamp partition without having to also restore the OS X partition, using the process described below. Their recommended solution is to use Acronis for Mac and include the Bootcamp partition in those backups. The crux of the issue is that I am using an unsupported configuration of Acronis True Image – per this article, Acronis does not support installing True Image for Windows in a Bootcamp partition and using it to create and restore backups of that partition. Today’s post is a bit of a swerve from the usual PowerShell I recently encountered difficulties restoring a backup of my Windows install created with Acronis True Image that took a while to understand, so I thought it would be interesting to write up.
