Assuming there isn't a process with an open file handle...
  • Take ownership of the file through properties > security or the CLI with takeown
  • Grant yourself full access to the file with the same GUI or CLI with icacls
  • Delete file

Acronis True Image blocks deletion of image files from within Windows.

I forget which processes need to be killed in Task Manager to stop that. (It has been a while since I used True Image.) But stopping any Acronis process that you find should be OK.

Hi Bikeit,

I am pretty sure that the (only) best way to delete an Acronis backup is within Acronis itself. Just right click and choose delete.

Kind regards,

Nah. It's easy enough to kill a process in Task Manager.

The "we know what's best for you" design of True Image was one reason I stopped using it.

In my True Image 2019, I turn "Active Protection" OFF and can then manipulate and delete backup files at will.

Acronis True Image and Acronis Backup: deleting backups in Windows Explorer fails with "Folder access denied"


Not personally tested as I have not used Acronis since 2006 or so.
