All the solutions required the complete Acronis True Image software. I searched in Google, but didn’t find a resolution to it. I tried it with Windows USB/DVD Download Tool and failed. So, I used Rufus to burn the ISO to USB drive and tried to boot from it, but in vain. I want to keep a copy of it, so that if something does not work in Win 10, I can get back to Win 8 in few minutes. Few days ago, my system’s CD drive has failed and system was not booting from the CD drive and I had to take the backup of my system as Windows 10 is going to replace it. I burned the ISO to a disk and have been using it since a long time. I felt this the only thing I need and kept a copy of it in the system.
I just have the bootable rescue ISO file and not the entire software.
I would have also lost all the settings and any important files I have stored in C drive (I always keep the important files in other drives). It makes the life easy as it can restore the entire C drive in just 10 minutes if something happens to my system, which otherwise would have taken half a day to full day with installing OS, Office, and other software I use.
I have been using an old version of Acronis True Image for the last few years to clone my C drive to keep a copy of it.
