5.3.1 Archive protection

The preset is no password.

An archive can be protected with a password. To protect the archive from being restored by

anybody except you, enter a password and its confirmation into the text fields. A password

should consist of at least eight symbols and contain both letters (in the upper and lower

cases preferably) and numbers to make it more difficult to guess.

If you try to restore data from a password-protected archive, or append an

incremental/differential backup to such an archive, Acronis True Image Server will ask for

the password in a special window, allowing access only to authorized users.

By default, all files from the selected folders will be included into the archive.

You can set default filters for the specific types of files you do not wish to back up. For

example, you may want hidden and system files and folders, as well as files with .~, .tmp

and .bak extensions, not to be stored in the archive.

You can also apply custom filters, using the common Windows masking rules. For example,

to exclude all files with extension .exe, add *.exe mask. My???.exe mask will reject all .exe

files with names consisting of five symbols and starting with "my".

This option is effective for file/folders backup only. When creating a disk/partition image, you

cannot filter out any files.

You can specify commands or batch files to be automatically executed before and after the

backup procedure

. For example, you may want to remove some tmp files from the disk

before starting backup or configure a third-party antivirus product to be started each time

before the backup starts. Click Edit to open the Edit Command window where you can

easily input the command, its arguments and working directory or browse folders to find a

batch file.

Please do not try to execute interactive commands, i.e. commands that require user input

(for example, "pause"). These are not supported.
