When backing up to a diskette, CD-R/RW or DVD+R/RW:

Acronis True Image Workstation

will ask you to insert a new disk when the previous one is full.
Alternatively, you can select Fixed size and enter the desired file size or select it from the
drop-down list. The backup will then be split into multiple files of the specified size. That
comes in handy when backing up to a hard disk with a view to burning the archive to CD-
R/RW or DVD+R/RW later on.

Creating a backup directly on CD-R/RW or DVD+R/RW might take considerably more time
than it would on a hard disk.

6.3.8 File-level security settings

Preserve files’ security settings in archives
By default, files and folders are saved in the archive with their original Windows security
settings (i.e. permissions for read, write, execute and so on for each user or user group, set
in file Properties -> Security). If you restore a secured file/folder on a computer without
user, specified in the permissions, you may not be able to read or modify this file.
To completely eliminate this kind of problem, you can disable preserving files’ security
settings in archives. Then the restored files/folders will always inherit the permissions from
the folder to which they are restored (parent folder or disk, if restored to the root).
Alternatively, you can disable files’ security settings during restoration, even if they are
available in the archive (see

7.4.5 File-level security

settings

below). The result will be the

same.
In archives, store encrypted files in decrypted state
The preset is disabled.
If you do not use the encryption feature available in Windows XP operating system, simply
ignore this option. (Files/folders encryption is set in Properties -> General -> Advanced
Attributes -> Encrypt contents to secure data
).
Check the option if there are encrypted files in the backup and you want them to be
accessed by any user after restore. Otherwise, only the user who encrypted the files/folders
will be able to read them. Decryption may also be useful if you are going to restore
encrypted files on another computer.
These options relate only to file/folders backup.

6.3.9 Media components

The preset is disabled.
When backing up to removable media, you can make this media bootable by writing to it
additional components. Thus, you will not need a separate rescue disk.
Choose the basic components, necessary for boot and restoring data, on the General tab.
The Acronis One-Click Restore is a minimal addition to the image archive, stored on
removable media, allowing one-click disk recovery from this archive. This means that at boot
from the media and clicking “restore” all the data contained in the image will be silently
restored.

Because one-click approach does not imply user selections, like selecting partitions to

restore, Acronis One-Click Restore always restores the entire disk. Therefore, if your disk

consists of several partitions and you are planning to use Acronis One-Click Restore, all the
