• access all Windows Restore Points on the recovered disk, 
• access VSS snapshots via Windows Vista's "Previous Versions" feature on the recovered 
disk,  
• keep licensing and other information for installed appliacations as some programs may 
use NT disk signature for licensing and other purposes, 
• keep the existing scheduled task without the need to re-create or edit it, as all 
scheduled tasks of the program use the NT disk signature for disk identification. 

1. Select a target disk or partition where you want to deploy the selected image. You can 
restore data to its initial location, to another disk/partition or to an unallocated space. The 
target partition should be at least the same size as the uncompressed image data. 

 

All the data stored on the target partition will be replaced by the image data, so be 

careful and watch for non-backed-up data that you might need. 

When restoring a Windows system disk and select a target disk, the program compares 
critical for the system start devices, found in the image registry and the target computer 
registry. 
If the chipset, motherboard or mass storage device are different, there is a risk that the 
system will not be able to boot. Then you will be prompted whether you want to buy 
Acronis Universal Restore. To find out more about this option, see 

. To buy the option, follow the link.  

If you already have Acronis Universal Restore, the prompt will not come up and you will 
have an option to enable Acronis Universal Restore later in the Restore Data Wizard. 
2. When restoring an entire disk, the program will analyze the target disk structure to see 
if the disk is free.
