Specifies that the component will be installed for the current user only, rather than for all users 
on a machine. 

This parameter is not effective for Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Agent for Windows, which runs 
as a service. 

Avoid using this parameter when installing the component through Group Policy, because the 
“current user” in such installation is typically a system account. 

/target_dir

 

Installation_Folder

 

Specifies the folder where to install the component. Without this parameter, the component will 
be installed to the default folder: %ProgramFiles%\Acronis\BackupAndRecovery 

Agent-specific parameters 

The following parameters are effective only when installing Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Agent for 
Windows. 

/serial 

License_Key

 

Specifies the license key to use when installing the package. A license key is a sequence of letters 
and numerals separated by dashes. Enter the license key exactly, including the dashes. 

/old_serial

 

Echo_License_Key

 

When upgrading from Acronis True Image Echo, specifies the license key for that edition. Use 
this parameter with the 

/serial

 parameter. 

/online_backup

 

Specifies that the agent will be installed for online backup only. A license key is not required. 

Note: 

Specify either the 

/serial

 parameter or the 

/online_backup 

parameter, but not both. 

/account 

User_Name Password

 

Specifies the user name and password of the user account under which Acronis Managed 
Machine Service will run on the machines. The user account must have appropriate privileges, as 
described in Specifying credentials for Acronis services (p. 6). Separate the name of the domain 
and the account by a backslash, as in: 

mydomain\User

 

Without this parameter, the agent will run under the default account: 

Acronis Agent User

 

/cep_enabled

 

Specifies whether the machine will participate in the Customer Experience Program. 

With this parameter, information about the hardware configuration, the most and least used 
features and about any problems will be automatically collected from the machine and sent to 
Acronis on a regular basis. The terms of participation can be found on the Acronis Web site. 

Without this parameter, the information will not be sent.
