This one is nasty! I updated to Acronis True Image 2016 recently and occasionally on laptop shutdown get the message "Acronis True Image is terminating the current operations, please wait. The computer will be turned off automatically in about two minutes" and find the laptop remains in this state indefinately or just hangs. So, in order to complete the shutdown I need to power down the laptop. My system is Windows7 Pro x64. If I power up immediately the laptop will boot to windows but after a few minutes everything just freezes and have to power down again. Checking the event log there are no entries other than 'unexpected shutdown'. This issue has been with Acronis over many releases now with still no fix?? Suffice to say I am totally fed up with it and have purchased a rival application in Macrium Reflect which I find far easier to use and doesn't have this issue.
