Gentlemen, thanks for the thoughtful replies.

My last Acronis image failed. I am eliminating Acronis from my life and I am switching to Macrium. It appears to have better Win 8 support. Now, I could try an older image, but at this point I would like to know more about the Pro Tools 10 re-installation. There is too much to reinstall if I go back further. Mine is an upgrade from Pro Tools 9. Does the ilok handle all the licensing for a re-install?

This may be important, but I converted Win 7 to Win 8 after my Pro Tools installations. Pro Tools 10 was installed last October. Win 8 in November. It was an experiment that proved to be successful for over 5 months. While I can't predict how Win 8 will respond to a new Pro Tools installation, in all cases thus far it acts just like Win 7.

This is an excellent forum.

Thanks
