    I'm trying to use the 'Explore Backup Archive' feature in the 'Tools' section of True Image 10 Home.
    I go to : Tools dropdown at top; then Explore Backup Archive. Then I select my archive file which is on my CD which is the E: drive; click on open, and get a 'password needed' box per the attached .JPG file.
    I never defined, requested or entered any passwords anywhere. Per the attached file, the program also is looking for the file on the C: drive.

    Thanks in advance, Don

    Hello Aleksandr,

    Thank you for your reply. I downloaded and installed build 4942 and tried the 'Explore Backup Archive' feature with both old and new backups.

    It is now looking at my CD -- E: drive and not locking up my PC anymore, but it is not finding any of the backup files.

    The path is correct, but under the detail it only shows a 0 byte file named 'slice'.

    Don

    Hello donnonm,

    Thank you for choosing Acronis Disk Backup Software.

    Please notice that the "slice" item you see represents a point in time when the backup was taken (if you had differential/incremental backups as well, you would see several slices). To browse the contents just open the slice (double-click on it). Please be aware that if a backup spans over several CDs/other media, you will need to copy all parts into one folder before you can mount/explore it.

    You can find the detailed instructions on how to use Acronis True Image 10.0 Home in the respective User's Guide.

    Thank you.
