TI 10.0, build 4940 Breaks Windows Explorer

I'll try to keep this simple. Which will be very difficult.

I backed up my Boot Drive C: by creating and image to another HD Drive K:.
I verified the image and it passed.

Now when I use Windows Explorer it seems to have lost its indexing info because it takes forever to scan my system. Then when it reaches the point where it is looking at my disk image I get an error.

The error states:

Archive Open Error
Plug-in is not found (0x1B003)
Token = "PlaceBrowser"
Tag = 0xAC6EA1C1803F7BFC

I have tried many work arounds and found that if I hide the image file Explorer functions properly and works at normal speed.

I'm getting really disappointed in Acronis Products because the last few versions I purchased have never functioned properly.

Any info welcome,
Mike

 

Is Windows trying to index drive K:? Perhaps you could turn off indexing on that drive.

I had a similar issue with my virus scanner. Since explorer can now see inside of .tib files, the virus scanner was scanning inside all of my image files and it took it much longer than normal. I solved that by blocking the scan of .tib files in the antivirus setup.

If you search in the Windows Help file you can find out how to configure indexing to ignore certain files/folders.

 

HI Mark,

I don't think what you suggested is the answer to my problem.

I tried turning off indexing on that drive and it did nothing. I still reiceived the same error.

I also tried doing a search just on that drive and also received the same error.

As a side not; I tried to do a search just on my C: drive and did not get the error. So the problem definitely is caused by the presence of the disk image on my K: drive. I believe this is a serious bug which needs to fixed.

Any info welcome,
Mike

 

Anybody?

Mike

 

I guess I'm just stuck with it!

Mike

 

Mike,

Where is the K: drive? Internal or external HD?

I'm not sure what you mean by this.

I'm not sure what you mean by this.

 

I'm having the same problem as Mike. Any answers yet?

Did you have the same problem with the previous build, or is this a new problem introduced by this build?

 

No problems with TI Home Acronis 9.0. I'm on TI Home 10.0 build 4942

As a matter of fact, this 3(0x1B003), plugin not found is now appearing as a error in log files. Log file indicates backup image and verify image are all OK, then it follows with error: module 27 error code: 3(0x1B003), message: plugin not found.

I have just found this board and am pleased I have, as I have the same problem as Mike. With Search I get the same error message which thanks to his work-around doesn't appear if I hide the tib file.
Trying to open the tib file under windows explorer produces the same error message. I am new to TI so I don't know if this is normal.
This problem was first noted some 7 weeks ago. Isn't time it was fixed ?

I also have the same problem, i.e. plug-in is not found (0x1B0003).
Using Windows XP, TI 10 build 4942.
Furthermore, I find it really bothersome that there is no way to tell windows not to search inside archive files. At least there is a third party program that makes registry settings so that windows will not search inside zip or cab files. There should be some convenient way to do the same for Acronis tib files.
Thank you.

 

Hello Peter John and emdjjdui,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Disk Backup Software.

Please follow the steps described in my previous post to collect the information that is needed for investigation of this issue.

Thank you.

The problem does not happen while using TI and so there is no log referencing the error. See the attached image for the error message.

The full text of the error message is as follows:

Window title: Archive Open Error
Description:
An error occured when opening archive:
Plug-in is not found. (0x1B0003)
token = "PlaceBrowser"
tag = 0xAC6EA1C1803F7BFC

 

Same as emdjjdui: error occurs with "Search", not with running TI.
Also should trying to open a tib file from explorer produce an error message or should TI open ?

 

I have the same problem.

Nothing is shown in the logs.

The error window should identify the software that produced it (presumably some component of True Image). I was using another program while the search ran in the background, and I assumed that this program had caused the error. I only found the source of the problem by a Google search for the error message, which found this forum.

 

Hello Mike Dallwitz and everyone,

Thank you for choosing Acronis Disk Backup Software.

Please be aware that as I mentioned in the above post we have already received similar requests from other Acronis customers. To investigate the issue thoroughly could you please create Windows System Information as it is described in Acronis Help Post and a screen shot of the error message.

Then submit a request for technical support. Attach all the collected files and information to your request along with the link to this thread. We will investigate the problem and try to provide you with a solution.

Thank you.

Problem solved.
I removed ATI and then reinstalled it.
Originally, I had installed the new build over the old without first removing it.
Thanks for the help.

 

Pleased that you found a work-around, but that is not the main point.
Acronis state that updating does not need a fresh install but can be installed over existing version. So the bug is still there !

 

i am also having this problem. it happens when i perform a search using the standard windows search. it only happens when i search the drive containing the tib file.

if i right click the folder containing the tib file and perform a search it will show the error:

an error occurred opening the archive:

plugins not found. (0x1b0003)
token=placebrowser
tag=0xAC6EA1C803F7BFC

no errors are recorded in the log, even if i leave the true image interface open.

using build 4942. i'll try uninstalling and reinstalling and see if that fixes the problem.

 

uninstall and reinstall fixed the problem.

i wonder if it's because i did an 'over the top' install of the trial?

whatever the cause, uninstall/reinstall fixes the problem.

 

Hi:

I have the same error message when I do a Win XP 'search' that involves any of my backup locations. Acronis TI is not running when this happens.

Archive Open Error
Plug-in is not found (0x1B003)
Token = "PlaceBrowser"
Tag = 0xAC6EA1C1803F7BFC


It recurred today after I did a complete de- and re-install of TI10.4942 (the only TI I have ever installed).

I also have Disk Director.

I'm running WinXP, all updates. My PC has 2 GB main memory, and oodles of empty HDD on 3 disks. My 'temp' file is essentially empty.

Thans, Ken

I'm also experiencing this problem, have tried uninstall, thorough registry clean and re-install - no different, also tried disabling AV and firewall. Error only occurs when using XP search on folders containing an Acronis image.

 

Problem resolved! Although I shutdown AV (NOD32) at taskbar it was evidently still running (see my previous post).
After configuring AV to omit *.tib files XP explorer search proceeded normally, albeit partitions containing Acronis images took a considerable time as expected.
now I need to exclude *.tib files form the search and all should be OK
