Chapter 13. Exploring archives and
mounting images
Acronis True Image Home offers two kinds of archive contents management: mounting for
images and exploring for both images and file-level archives.
Exploring images and file-level archives lets you view their contents and copy the
selected files to the hard disk.
Mounting images as virtual drives lets you access them as though they were physical
drives. This means that:
a new disk with its own letter will appear in the drives list
using Windows Explorer and other file managers, you can view the image contents as if
they were located on a physical disk or partition
you will be able to use the virtual disk in the same way as the real one: open, save,
copy, move, create, delete files or folders. If necessary, the image can be mounted in
read-only mode
The operations described in this Chapter are supported only for the FAT and NTFS file
systems.
Please keep in mind that, though both file archives and disk/partition images have a default
“.tib” extension, only images can be mounted. If you want to view file archive contents, use
the Explore operation. Images residing in backup locations cannot be mounted if the Mount
Image Wizard is launched from the main menu. However, such images can be mounted
through the Windows Explorer by right-clicking on an image archive and selecting the
Mount item in the context menu. The following is a brief summary of the Explore vs Mount
operation:
Explore Mount
Archive type File-level, disk or partition image Partition image
Assigning a letter No Yes
Archive modification No Yes (in R/W mode)
Files extraction Yes Yes
Backup locations support Yes No
The current version of Acronis True Image Home can mount or explore an image archive
only if all its volumes reside in the same directory. If your archive spans several CD-R/RW
discs and you wish to mount the image, you should copy all volumes to a hard disk drive or
network drive.
13.1 Searching files in archives
1. Select Tools -> Management -> Manage Backup Locations and Archives in the
main program menu to navigate to the Backup Locations window. Or choose the
Management Tools category in the main program window and then click Manage
Backup Locations and Archives in the Main group.
2. Select a backup location in the Backup Locations window and click Explore Backup
Location on the sidebar or double-click on the selected backup location.
