If the archive is located on removable media, e.g. CD, first insert the last CD and then

insert disks in reverse order when Restore Data Wizard prompts.

Data recovery directly from an FTP server requires the archive to be split into files no
more than 2GB in size. If you suspect that some of the files may be larger, first copy the

entire archive (along with the initial full backup) to a local hard disk or network share

disk. See notes and recommendations for supporting FTP server in

1.4.2 Supported

storage media.

If you added a comment to the archive, it will be displayed to the right of the drives tree.
If the archive was protected with a password, Acronis True Image Echo Server will ask for
it. The partitions layout, the comment and the Next button will be unavailable until you
enter the correct password.
2. If the selected archive contains incremental backups, Acronis True Image Echo Server
will suggest that you select one of successive incremental backups by its creation
date/time. Thus, you can return the disk data to a certain moment.

To restore data from an incremental backup, you must have all previous incremental
backups and the initial full backup. If any of successive backups is missing, restoration is

not possible.
To restore data from a differential backup, you must have the initial full backup as well.

6.3.3 Restoration type selection

Select what you want to restore:
Restore specified files or folders
With this selection, you will be further offered to select where to restore selected
folders/files (original or new location), choose files/folders to be restored and so on.
These steps look like those in file archive restore. However, watch your selection: if you
are to restore files instead of disk/partition, uncheck the unnecessary folders. Otherwise
you will restore a lot of excessive files. Then you will be taken directly to Restoration
Summary screen (
