Acronis 2010

Hi Loungers,

All my back-ups are done using the 'One Click' Method.
Now that I have successfully added a Standard Account for myself on my Laptop, how should the back-up be made, using the 'Admin' or Standard account.
-
The images were made using the same settings on both accounts with TreeSize portable. A different amount of files is given.

I would make your backups (Images or Clones) with the Admin account to give you more control. I'm not even sure the limited user account will be able to do it although I have never tried as I only have an Admin account.

Hi Ted,
Just tried it on my 'Standard' account. I was asked for my 'Admin' password, entered successfully but that was as far as I went.
Their has been no significant additions to my Laptop for over a month, here's how the back up sizes are.

it might work, but I personally would feel more comfortable on the Admin Account.

So do I, though it does ask during install, for current or all users.

RR,

All that question does is tell the installer where to put the Shortcuts. In your profile or the All Users profile. TTBOMK.

RG,
When Acronis was installed, I only had my Admin account. On adding my Standard account the shortcut was on the desktop.

RR,

If you selected All users then it's in the All Users folder for ALL users, existing or new.

Where is the ALL Users Folder?

RR,

In Win 7 it's: C:\Users\Public\Desktop.
