I use Acronis True Image 2017 backup software on my Windows 10 ASUS laptop (Windows 10 Home Version 1607 build 16299.125).  I am thinking about upgrading to Acronis True Image 2018 (Basic 1-pc) because it has a new feature called: "Active defense against ransomware". Does anyone know if this upgrade and its new feature is compatible with SecureAnywhere? 
Thanks!

Hi lacoop48
 
Welcome to the Community forums.
 
From what I know of the feature you mention it purely works to protect the images that Acronis makes...nothing else. As such I do not believe that there should be any issue with running this & WRSA together.
 
I use Macrium Reflect which has a similar anti ransomware feature, and having this active whilst my system is protected by WRSA has not caused any issues as far as I am aware.
 
Hope that helps?

FYI -  I decided to upgrade to Acronis 2018 (ATI 1 pc) because I already was using ATI 2017 and because of your response to my question.  Very helpful.  So far, there have been no software conflicts.  Thanks again!
