Since I have actually created a clone from within Windows 10, I thought, "well, let me see if I can boot to that." And low and behold, even with Secure Boot enabled, I was able to see the external disk drive in BIOS and boot to it should I choose. I've enabled Legacy boot, and it continues to fail I've disabled Secure Boot, and it continues to fail

Since using that is new, I tried my trusty, long-lived Linux Persistent LiveUSB (Mint distro), and I get the same result. So far I have only been able to create an image from within Windows, I cannot begin the capture process from the Acronis USB rescue media. My goal is to capture an image using Acronis True Image, and then push the image to another hard drive for a backup. By choosing this option, after the first successful backup, your backup and replication will be done simultaneously.I have so far been unable to boot into USB. With Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office, you also have the ability to automatically replicate local backups in the Acronis Cloud, so you always have an off-site copy of your data available without having to manage a separate backup plan.

Subscriptions to the Advanced and Premium editions of Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office (formerly Acronis True Image) include cloud storage, as well as cloud-based features and "anywhere access" to your data. The cloud is a convenient way to store your files off-site, where they are safe from local damage. "The cloud" is a term that describes a remote network of computers and servers that you access via the internet.

That way, if a fire or flood damages both your original files and the local backup, the off-site copy is available to use for recovery. Acronis recommends the 3-2-1 backup rule, which includes storing three copies of your data on at least two different types of media (such as external hard drives, network drives, and NAS devices) and keeping one copy off-site. Computer backups need to be stored someplace safe.
