1.1.9.11 Installing Acronis Hotfixes

What is an Acronis Hotfix?

Acronis Hotfix is a small update for Acronis products. It makes changes to one or more application

files or registry keys but does not change an application version. A hotfix targets only a specific

True Image 2013 build, and cannot be applied to any other build.

Acronis Hotfixes are distributed through Acronis Knowledge Base articles, which describe the

problem to be fixed in detail. Each article can be accessed through SER or directly by searching

Acronis Knowledge Base.

Advantages of installing Acronis Hotfixes:

 Hotfix installation does not require much time and resources. You do not need to wait until the

next product update to fix a particular issue.

 A hotfix package is much smaller than the product installation package, though it may include

files from previous hotfixes for consistency.

 You can install only necessary hotfixes, if several hotfixes are available.

All changes from hotfixes released between updates will be included in the new product versions (updates or

upgrades).

How to install Acronis Hotfixes?

To check whether new Acronis Hotfixes are available, click Check for updates from the Help menu. A

list of available hotfixes for the current build will be displayed in a table, where you can select those

you want to install. When you select an Acronis Hotfix, its release notes (changes and enhancements

to be applied to the product) will be displayed below.

Note, if a new True Image 2013 update is available, Acronis Hotfixes will not be displayed since each update

contains all hotfixes released before.

After selecting Acronis Hotfixes you want to install, click Download and Install button. Also, if you

select Do not notify me about the unselected hotfixes in the future option, a hotfix window will not

appear at the program startup until a new hotfix is available. Though, if you check for updates

manually (Help -> Check for updates), the window will appear even when this option is selected.

After all selected Acronis Hotfixes are installed, click Close and run True Image button to start the

product.
