Status bar
In the bottom of the main window, there is a status bar divided into two parts. The
left part briefly describes the selected operation; the right one indicates image
operation progress and results.
A double-click on the operation progress line opens the operation progress window.
If you double-click on the operation results, you will see the logs window (see
"Viewing logs").
Taskbar notification area icon
During image creation operations, a special indicator icon appears in the notification
area (the right portion of the status bar with the clock). If you place the cursor over
the icon, you will see a tool tip indicating the operation’s progress. This icon doesn’t
depend on the main program window being open. It is present for background
execution of scheduled tasks as well.
Disk and partition information
You can change disk schemes and data representation in all schemes you see in
various wizards.
To the right are three icons:
Arrange Icons by, Choose Details and Display the
properties of the selected item (also duplicated in the context menu invoked by
double-clicking objects).
To sort messages by a particular column, click the header (another click will switch
the messages to the opposite order) or
Arrange Icons by button and select the
column.
To select columns to view, right-click the headers line or left-click the
Choose
Details button
. Then flag the columns you want to display.
If you click the
Display the properties of the selected item button, you will see
the selected partition or disk properties window.
This window contains two panels. The left panel contains the properties tree and
the right describes the selected property in detail. The disk information includes its
physical parameters (connection type, device type, size, etc.); partition information
includes both physical (sectors, location, etc.), and logical (file system, free space,
assigned letter, etc.) parameters.
You can change the width of columns by dragging their borders with the mouse.
3.2 Acronis Secure Zone
Acronis Secure Zone is a special, hidden system partition for storing disk and
partition images. Ordinary applications can’t access it, for image security purposes.
