In the years before W7 I backed up frequently by making a clone with software called "Apricorn". Some of the software elements had an Acronis label. A few choices to make and then restart, and the clone was made from bios. On a couple of occasions when I had screwed up entirely I simply backed up the process and cloned my main disk from the external drive and was back in business.
Acronis is much more complicated. The cloning process looks much the same, but the results aren't nearly as dependable. I have a log file of my last session and can't understand much - why, for instance, is there a mention of email not received?
I've attached a capture of the log and at this point don't know whether the clone was made properly or not. I am old and pretty dumb about all the add-ons (synching, etc). Can you tell if I am getting what I want and can ignore the warning triangles? Thanks
