Runtime errors are the most common form of BIN error you will encounter using Acronis Disk Director Home.

In most cases, gen_bootmenu.bin runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally.

Generally, Acronis Disk Director Home will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Finding the source of the gen_bootmenu.bin error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these BIN errors affecting gen_bootmenu.bin will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using Acronis Disk Director Home 11.
