BAE functions by mounting the archive as a virtual volume. In an installed environment, this utilizes kernel-mode drivers. In a portable or "bootable" environment (often run via the Acronis Bootable Media), the software operates within a customized Linux or WinPE environment. This allows the software to interpret the proprietary file system metadata and present the backup contents to the user interface as a standard hierarchical file tree (NTFS, FAT32, etc.).
