1) download True Image 2015:
http://dl.acronis.com/s/AcronisTrueImage2015_en-US.exe

2) disconnect internet!

3) install True Image, close installer (don't start True Image!)

4) wait about 20 seconds while background tasks still work

5) run ActivatorAcronisTI(H).exe
   if you read "activation successful!" everything is ok

6) (skip this step if using the actual build)
   set the date on min. 31 days later
   *don't* click the popup but run ATI
   click "OFFLINE ACTIVATION" and type any activation code, e.g. 1234
   correct the date

7) reconnect internet and have fun...


if you need the manual:

Media Add-on (for PE boot cd -> read the manual):
http://dl2.acronis.com/s/AcronisTrueImage2015_addons_en-US.exe


if you need the regular boot cd only:
http://dl2.acronis.com/s/AcronisTrueImage2015_en-US.iso

here you find the new, promised to be always current
dl2.acronis.com/s/AcronisUniversalRestore.iso
use it after restoring on dissimilar hardware

(create an usb-stick with EASY2BOOT or YUMI)



If True Image is asking for activation after 30 days:
click "OFFLINE ACTIVATION" and type any activation code, e.g. 1234
(the patched "libcrypto10.dll" accepts all)

If you want to check the above:
click "License" -> Change serial number -> use same or another key...
(this also updates the files for the bootable media,
if you have problems with it)


If you experience problems: (Hardware ID has changed) run setup.exe again and "repair"
Then run Activator again

If that doesn't help: uninstall, reboot, then run the Acronis cleaner
(option 2) before reinstalling:
