4.1 What is Acronis Cloud?
Acronis Cloud might be unavailable in your region. For more information, click here:

On the one hand, Acronis Cloud is a remote storage which you may use for storing your data. All you
need for using this storage is an Acronis account.
You can save important files to a secure remote location and recover them when the need arises.
Because files are stored on a remote storage, they are protected even if your computer gets stolen or
your house burns down. So the risk of data loss as a result of fire, theft, or other natural disasters is
practically eliminated. If something happens to your backup image, PC, or external storage device,
you can get your most important files back. If your computer crashes, you can recover your files back
to your PC or another system that has True Image Lite 2013 installed on it.
On the other hand, Acronis Cloud is a Web application that allows you to recover and manage the
data you store on Acronis Cloud. You can use any computer with a Web browser without the
necessity of installing True Image Lite 2013 or other Acronis application that operates with Acronis
Cloud.
Simply go to the Acronis Web site using this link https://www.acronis.com/my/online-backup/ and
log in to your account. When your subscription information page opens, click Recover my data now.
After the Acronis Cloud page opens, select the backup or sync that contains the files you need to
recover and then download the files to your current computer.
You can save documents, photos, music, and more from up to five PCs on one account. If a computer
crashes, no problem... Just log in from another computer and retrieve your files.
