If you want something that can recover you from a broken boot drive, Windows can also do that. ![]() If you want a backup so you can say "oh shit, I deleted my wedding video!" windows can do that just fine. There are probably a few more 'features' that Acronis offers, like Cloud backups, but the question is, what features do you actually need. Or you could use whatever replaced Truecrypt for the backup drive itself. The features Acronis adds on top of that are things like automatic backup aging (you have to manually delete old backups when your disk gets full with Windows, Acronis will do this automatically, if configured - note, with base Windows 10, this becomes something you need to mess with maybe once every 3-6 months, depending on how you use your PC. The Windows Shadow Copy Service is what is used to create a windows backup, and Acronis uses that same 'front door' so to speak. Windows 10 Backup & Restore is, at the base level, what Acronis uses to do its backup work. ![]() File History backup is basically the "Restore Point" feature of older versions fused with a SVN/CVS/Git for keeping versions of files.
