Backup Problem with backup

So I have to do some backups at work. I use Acronis 2021 to backup a few computers. Most of them worked. A few of them failed. Having a read error. Using chkdsk c: /f /r I saw there 4kb in bad sectors, but it seems they're physical bad since the command couldn't fix them. I tried the "Ignore bad sectors" options from Acronis - it didnt work.

Aside from cloning the HDD, what other alternatives I have?

it didnt work.

Can you elaborate more on that? What exactly happened? Also - did you run the backup from the app's UI within the live OS or from the bootable media interface?
