2. If you have not started the program after installation and you want to avoid the hassles of having to delete the unwanted addition of backup tasks, you can prevent the first scan by a simple edit in the registry as below. A registry edit is not recommended or required but listed as a convenience for some who may be interested.
Note: the illustration shows the registry location for XP Pro.
If using Win7 64 bit, you may find the registry settings inside
HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Acronis\TrueImageHome\Settings
