2. Change the current folder to the folder where the upgrade tool is installed—by default:
C:\Program Files\Acronis\UpgradeTool
If Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 is installed in a folder other than the default folder, change the
path accordingly.
3. Run the following command:
cscript UpgradeTool.vbs Agent
Result:
Tasks that were present in Acronis True Image Echo are converted to Acronis Backup & Recovery
10 tasks and appear in the Backup plans and tasks view.
Each backup task's schedule, items to back up, and backup destination are the same as before,
but the task will create a new archive to perform further backups.
Each backup task is part of a backup plan. You can edit the backup plan to change the task's
schedule or other parameters.
Importing old options
The upgrade tool enables you to import the default backup options, default restoration options,
notification options, and event tracing options of Acronis True Image Echo to the default backup and
recovery options of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10.
To import the old options:
1. Change the current folder to the one where the upgrade tool is installed.
2. Run the following command:
cscript UpgradeTool.vbs Options
The old options are imported as follows:
Notifications is imported as Notifications in both Default backup options and Default recovery
options.
Event tracing is imported as Event tracing in both Default backup options and Default recovery
options.
Archive splitting is imported as Backup splitting.
In Media components, if Place Acronis One-Click Restore on media is the only check box
selected, it is imported as Acronis Bootable Agent and One-Click Restore.
Validate backup archive upon its creation completion is not imported from Additional settings
in Default backup options or Default recovery options.
In Default recovery options, Files to exclude from restoration, Files overwriting mode, and
Restore files and folders without restoring full path (in Additional settings) are not imported.
Other options are imported as the corresponding options in Default backup options and Default
recovery options.
Using backup archives created with Acronis True Image Echo
After the upgrade to Acronis Backup & Recovery 10, you have the ability to recover data from
backups created with Acronis True Image Echo.
To facilitate access to these backups, you may want to create a personal vault where the backups are
located. For instructions on how to create a personal vault, see the "Actions on personal vaults"
section in the User's Guide.
