For years I have been using TC on Win-XP. In case of a damaged OS I used a Reatogo-StartCD (s.th. similar like Bart) together with Acronis TrueImage (the so-called PlusPack) and TC. My backups are on a separate TC-encrypted HDD.
I tried to do the same now with a laptop under Win7. However, Reatogo does only work with XP.
Therefore, it would NOT be possible to do a recovery of the OS-partition!
The TC-start disk is of no help (because Trueimage cannot be included there).
The TI-start disk is of no help, either (because it does not contain TC to open the encrypted containers on the external HDD).
A win7 Start-CD doesn't help at all, because it is containing neither of them.
The Acronis helpdesk so far could not help (seems to consist only of stupid callcenter girls).
I would not mind using a differnet backup software (which one?), but the problem would still be the same: how to back up and restore the encrypted Win7 OS to/from an external HDD?
