    I have just backed up 3 partitions to an external HD, which completed successfully, using the trial version of True Image v11.0.

    However when I went to view the backup file it keeps coming back with 'Password is required' window.

    I know I didn't apply to be password protected as I am the only user. I can view the file in my directory size 67.8GB. I have even tried deleting the file but keeps coming back with 'Cannot delete file:Cannot read from the source file or disk'.

    FYI I am using XP Pro and I did a backup previously a few days ago of my mp3 files and I have no problem with access or deletion if required.

    All very strange - your help is required.

    Thanks

    Don

    Not sure why but I decided to stop 'try mode' and discard changes. This gave me access to my file. Being new to TI maybe I was doing something wrong but at least I have access to my backup file.

    Hello Don Fraser,

    Thank you for choosing Acronis Disk Backup Software.

    Could you please describe the issue in more details?

    - Has the Try mode been turned on or off upon proceeding with your hard drive image creation?
    - Does Acronis Secure Zone reside on your internal drive or not? Have you included it to the backup archive?

    Please submit a request for technical support via this web form with the subject indicating that you want to contact Alexey Bogomolov. Please provide a complete description of the issue including the answers to the above questions and the link to this thread. We will investigate the problem and try to provide you with a solution.

    Thank you.

    Best Regards,
    Alexey Bogomolov
