There are probably other times when you may need to recover the MBR, but the above are the most
common.

When recovering the MBR of one disk to another Acronis Backup recovers Track 0, which does not
affect the target disk’s partition table and partition layout. Acronis Backup automatically updates
Windows loaders after recovery, so there is no need to recover the MBR and Track 0 for Windows
systems, unless the MBR is damaged.

Selecting archive location

Location

Details

Cloud storage

If the archive is stored in Acronis Cloud Storage, click Log in and specify the credentials to
log in to the cloud storage. Then, expand the Cloud storage group and select the account.

Exporting and mounting are not supported for backups stored in Acronis Cloud Storage.

Personal

If the archive is stored in a personal vault, expand the Personal group and click the
required vault.

Centralized

If the archive is stored in a centralized vault, expand the Centralized group and click the
appropriate vault.

Machine name

Local machine

Local folders

If the archive is stored in a local folder on the machine, expand the <Machine name>
group and select the required folder.

CD, DVD, BD

If the archive is stored on optical media such as CD, DVD, or Blu-ray Discs (BD), expand the
<Machine name> group, then select the required drive. First insert the last disc. Then
insert the discs in order starting from the first one when the program prompts.

RDX, USB

If the archive is stored on an RDX drive or USB flash drive, expand the <Machine name>
group, then select the required drive. For information about using these drives, see the
"Removable devices" (p. 193) section.

Tape device

If the archive is stored on a locally attached tape device, expand the Tape devices group,
then click the required device.

Note Tape devices can only be used with Acronis Backup Advanced.

For information about using tapes, see the "Tape devices" (p. 194) section.

Network folders

If the archive is stored on a network share, expand the Network folders group, then select
the required networked machine and then click the shared folder. If the network share
requires access credentials, the program will ask for them.

Note for Linux users: To specify a Common Internet File System (CIFS) network share
which is mounted on a mount point such as /mnt/share, select this mount point instead of
the network share itself.
