Acronis True Image for Windows
Build number: 29350

What's new

• Acronis True Image is now ready to protect your data from any type of malware:
   • Enhanced Active Protection can block not only ransomware, but also any other
       malicious file types.
    • The on-demand antivirus scan searches all of the files on your computer for
       viruses.
    • Web filtering protects you from malicious URLs.
    • Zoom, Microsoft Teams and WebEx meetings are protected from personal
       information theft and intrusions.
• The Web Restore page was redesigned to make the Anywhere Access to Cloud data
  faster, more secure, and convenient.

• The "Cleaning up versions" option in the Acronis True Image console now supports
  backups to Acronis Cloud.
• Added an option to validate only the latest backup version, to speed up the regular
  validation process.
• .tibx archives can now be mounted, moved, renamed, and converted to the .vhd
  format.
• Backup replication to Acronis Cloud now supports resuming, which helps those with an
  unstable internet connection to save time. In case of a connection issue, the replication
  of backups to Acronis Cloud stops. When the connection is restored, the already
  replicated data is not replicated again and the replication continues from the point
  where it stopped.
