6.3.13 Restoration summary and executing restoration

1. At the final step, the restoration summary is displayed. Up to this point, you can click
Back to make changes in the created task. If you click Cancel, no changes will be made to
disk(s). Clicking Proceed will launch the task execution.
2. The task will appear on the Active tasks pane of the main window. The task progress
will be shown in a special window.
You can stop the procedure by clicking Cancel. However, it is critical to note that the target
partition will be deleted and its space unallocated – the same result you will get if the
restoration is unsuccessful. To recover the “lost” partition, you will have to restore it from
the image again.
If Acronis Universal Restore finds no HAL or mass storage device drivers compatible with the
new hardware in all available sources, you will be prompted to browse network share drive,
floppy disk or CD to select missing drivers. On starting Windows, it will initialize a common
procedure for installing new hardware. At this point, you will be able to specify drivers for
devices, if Windows cannot find them automatically.

6.4 Setting restore options

To view or edit the default restore options, select Tools -> Options -> Default
Restoration Options from the main program menu.
You can edit the default (or set the temporary) restore options while creating a restore task
as well.

6.4.1 Files to exclude from restoration

The default setting – Restore all files.
You can set the default filters for the specific types of files that are not to be restored. Use
the common Windows masking rules. For example, to exclude all files with extension .exe,
add *.exe mask. My???.exe mask will reject all .exe files with names, consisting of five
symbols and starting with “my”.
This option is effective only when restoring files from file/folders archives. When restoring
files from a disk/partition image, you cannot filter out any files.
