5 Recovery from Online Storage
5.1 Recovering data from Online Storage
Acronis True Image Online allows you to browse and recover data that was backed up on Online
Storage. If you have backed up data from several computers, select the computer from which you
backed up the data you want to recover. If the data from the selected computer is stored on the
Online Storage in encrypted form, you will be asked to enter the encryption key which has been used
for encryption. You will not be able to access the data until you enter the correct encryption key.
Using time scale
Having selected the computer, you can search the data you need to recover. All your backups have
creation dates. These dates determine the states that data had during the backup operation. Acronis
True Image Online provides for viewing the data states using a special time scale at the bottom of the
window. To view any prior data state, just find the date you need using the arrows on the time scale,
click the date and select a time. To go to the oldest backup date for a selected file or folder, click the
"Left arrow" button below the left end of the time scale. To return to the most recent backup date,
click the "Right arrow" button below the right end of the time scale. To speed up the searching
process you can switch the time scale to days mode or to months mode and scroll days or months
respectively. To switch to the months mode, click on a month name on the time scale. Selecting the
required month on the month scale automatically returns you to the days mode.
Selecting data
The main area displays the data backed up on the Online Storage. The area contains the folder tree
(on the left) and the folder contents pane (on the right). You can select the items using both panes.
To select multiple files/folders, you can use the Ctrl and Shift keys like in Windows Explorer. After
you finish selection, right-click and select the required action in the shortcut menu.
