NOTE: Acronis True Image running within Windows sees your disk drives are being NOT ENCRYPTED and will back them up as such.
DO NOT attempt to start a clone from within Windows UNLESS ENCRYPTION HAS BEEN DISABLED! You could lose your system if you do so!. CHECK if you have any form of disk encryption active / enabled on your system such as BitLocker or any other available encryption product. Also try to avoid using front USB ports when cloning where possible. Use a utility program such as Hard Disk Sentinel, Crystal Disk Info or the tools provided by the disk manufacturer such as SeaTools from Seagate etc. It is Highly Recommended to check both the Source and Target drives for any errors before attempting to clone - any bad sectors can cause the clone to fail. Cloning duplicates the drive signature which will confuse Windows at best and could potentially cause both drives to be corrupted. DO NOT attempt to boot into Windows with the cloned Source and Target drives both connected. ALL DATA on the target drive for a Clone will be wiped! DO NOT attempt to clone to a drive which has existing data that you wish to keep. The Windows PE version of the Rescue Media will be required in this case. NOTE: If the standard Rescue Media (which is based on a Linux Kernel OS) does not boot your computer into the Acronis Recovery environment, then starting a Clone or Recovery from Windows will also not work on your computer as this too uses the same Linux Kernel OS. 
ALWAYS create and TEST the Acronis bootable Rescue Media to ensure that this will work on your system and will see all of your internal / external disk drives. If a Clone goes wrong then this is your safety net and the means of recovering your drive / system. ALWAYS make a full disk & partitions backup of the source drive to be cloned BEFORE attempting to clone!. Acronis True Image products allow Cloning to be started from within the Windows Acronis application but this can result in an unbootable system or worse, a total loss of all data including the Windows OS if certain rules are not followed when doing a Clone operation.
