True Image update does not install

Hi,
I am using True Image 11. Yesterday I downloaded the last update built 8064. I was asked to deinstall the last built and to start the installation routine again. Hurray, both the update as well the original from cd do not install anymore. The routine runs through to a certain point and than deinstalls everything again. The acronis FAQ database advice was not sufficient, I am not able to install the programm again. Can anybody help ? THX in advance.

 

When normal un-install does not work, then manual un-install becomes necessary.

Another option would be to restore a TrueImage archive and then try a normal add/remove un-install. Since you had trouble, you could then check some of the manual remove options. It might also help if you stoped the 3 acronis services before un-installing.

 

This is how I normally do the uninstall:

1. Remove Acronis using Add or remove program

2. Use Ccleaner and clean the registery (see picture)

ThanX to all of you, however I have still the same problem. Unbelievable. I cannot find any trace of the program but neither the original software nor the update installs. I will keep on trying. Nice if there are some more ideas. regards.

 

You can request official support from Acronis by filling out a request on your personal registration page.

Gattaca, have you checked your hidden temp folder?

Lots of installers and logs are kept here which are supposed to be deleted by Windows, but aren't. TI is very sensitive to aborted install files living in th efolder.

A clear out is suggested - by the way the files upsetting TI aren't necessarily TI files.

If you haven't already, make sure you can view all files and folders as well as system folder and point your mouse at;

C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR_USER_NAME\Local Settings\Temp

When I first installed Acronis 11 on Vista Home Basic, I encountered this problem. I had forgotten to disable my virus checking program. Once I did, it installed without problems, and the latest update did as well.

Maybe this will help you.

 

Where did that update come from? 8053 is the only one listed on the updates page. I know that Acronis Tech Support has been providing iso files from versions 8064 and others to folks that can't get 8053 to see all their harddrives for restores, but I hadn't heard that the whole program, in that build number, was released.

Hi, thanks to all of you again. With your help and some input from the acronis support team even on saturday !!!!! I was able to fix the problem. Maybe its worthwhile to summarize the solution:

cmd scandisk c: /r

deinstallation of acronis true image home 11 via windows xp control panel/software

deactivation of the firewall and antivirus software

deletion of all files in c:\documents..\user\local....\temp (thanks to colin)

In addition I run the manual deinstallation recommened by YOU and acronis


Whow, what an effort. However its working again.

Best regards

Hi shieber,

I got the built via the common way, ie. acronis support and download center. Download time on jan 2, 08. Is it an update for the german version ati home 11 only ?

 

Ah! The current build numbers for the German and the English builds are diff. I don't know if the builds are diff (other than the language employed), but the build numbers are definitely diff.
