  3. Select Acronis WinPE ISO Builder from the Start menu;
  4. Specify path to the folder with the WinPE files;
  5. Specify path to the folder with the Acronis Plug-in files. (Check the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Acronis\WinPE\Settings\WinPE for the plug-in location);
  6. Specify the full path to the resulting ISO file including the file name;
  7. Check your settings in the summary screen and click Proceed;
  8. Burn the .ISO to CD or DVD using a third-party tool or copy to a flash drive.

Once a machine boots into the WinPE, Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 starts automatically.
