Acronis True Image 2025 | Release Notes
As with any major release, Acronis acknowledges the following limitations for build 1.2025:
Here is where the release notes get spicy for long-time fans.
Acronis has a history of killing off legacy support to push users toward modern hardware. The 2025 notes quietly discontinue support for older file systems and legacy boot modes (specifically tightening requirements for UEFI).
If you are still rocking a 2012-era BIOS machine or a spinning hard drive installation of Windows 7, the notes are basically your eviction notice. Acronis is betting the farm on modern infrastructure. It’s a bold move that will alienate a small slice of their user base but streamlines their codebase significantly.
Acronis True Image 2025 closes six critical vulnerabilities discovered in version 2024:
Additionally, the Linux Agent no longer runs as root by default. It now creates a dedicated acronis_user with CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH capabilities only during backup windows.
The 2025 release marks a significant shift from "just backup" to resilience. Below are the headline features.

Previous versions ran Intel code via Rosetta 2 for bootable media. True Image 2025 includes a native ARM64 bootable ISO for Macs with M-series chips.
Result: Creating a Mac bootable rescue drive is now 3x faster, and recovery operations consume 40% less battery.
For the first time, Acronis True Image 2025 uses Apple’s new Endpoint Security Extension (macOS 15.3+) to bypass the recurring "Full Disk Access" nag prompts. Backup speeds on M4 chips have increased by 42% thanks to the new AVX-like neural engine for delta compression. acronis true image 2025 release notes
Acronis True Image 2025 is not a set-it-and-forget-it tool; it is a set-it-and-defend-itself tool. The move toward AI-driven forensic rollback and quantum-safe encryption places this release firmly in the enterprise-lite category, albeit with a consumer price tag.
Who should upgrade immediately? Creative professionals with large NAS arrays, users in high-risk phishing environments, and anyone running Windows 12 on ARM hardware.
Who should wait for the patch? Users with complex multi-boot Linux setups or those relying on ancient CD burners for disaster recovery.
The 2025 release notes confirm that Acronis is no longer competing with just EaseUS or Macrium Reflect; they are competing with the sophistication of modern cyber extortion. For once, the backup software might actually be faster than the virus trying to break it.
