You've accumulated a lifetime of work, important memories and key data on your home PC in addition to important personal documents, such as your tax and financial information, not to mention all the software applications you installed and unique settings for each family member that took countless hours to setup.
Are you adequately protected, ensuring that you can recover your precious data and countless hours of custom configurations in case your PC fails?

Acronis True Image Home is a disk imaging backup option that enables you to create an image of your entire hard disk drive, including the operating system, applications, user settings, and all data.

Acronis True Image 11 Home offers two options for backups and restores. The original disk imaging backup option enables users to create an image of their entire hard disk drive, including the operating system, applications, user settings, and all data. They can use the image to restore their PC to a known working state without any reinstallation.

The application-based file backup option enables the software to backup and restore individual files that match pre-defined file extensions for music, videos, photographs, finance, email and other applications.

The latest v11 contains a migration feature, which will enable you to backup or copy across your entire PC contents to a new system. You can also back up specific items, such as your Outlook email, music and more.
