Acronis OS Selector is skipped on the startup if the hibernation file is detected. This is because of the peculiarities of Windows boot up from the hibernation state. Acronis OS Selector was designed to write logs on the hard disk every time it is started and this can corrupt the hibernation state of Windows operating system.
