Acronis True Image makes it easy to explore backup archives by mounting the images as virtual disk drives . With this feature, you can quickly access individual files in backup archives, without rebooting, to carry out a complete recovery. Acronis can automatically validate backup archives ; however, you can do it manually as well. You may decide to validate a backup archive if it is quite old or if it was created by someone you don’t know and you cannot be certain it’s a true backup. If you need to mount a backup archive, you can accomplish that easily, too.
