I have different Acronis images created with same Acronis 11 software. not all can be opened, escpecially not which I wanted. Acronis backups have all password protection, also there are some increments.

It fails telling "Import source not recognized", but probably on disk space. It does on the first step already, before I could set any destination.

Any way to change the conversion directory? Or is it just a logic error?

restore the Acronis image as you would do on real metal - then use the Converter to patch the system in a second step
