Chapter 4. Restoring Individual Files
As it has been said before, Acronis TrueImage software works with both hard
disk partitions, and the whole disks. In particular, you can store images of
several partitions or even disks in an archive file. However, if you have only
one or several files damaged (or accidentally deleted!) on the partition, it
would be inefficient to entirely restore it. A disk partition may already contain
many newer file versions than stored in the last image in an archive file along
with new files and folders. So, how to restore a separate file on a partition?
Acronis TrueImage is flexible enough to help you in this situation as well.
Acronis TrueImage features temporary logical drive connection from an image
for separate files restoration. Having connected a drive, you’ll be able to
access it as a usual hard disk. It means that:
• The list of your PC drives will be updated with a new one with a letter
assigned to it.
• You’ll be able to browse the files and folders tree of a partition, stored
in an archive file, with the Windows file managing tools (Explore,
etc.), as in case of a usual hard disk (or its partition).
• You’ll be able to use any file manager to find and copy any file (files
and/or folders) needed from a connected drive to a real one.
You’ll have the read access only to a connected drive, and won’t be able to
change it somehow.
