Time to bring this up to top.
I have the same problem. I asumed MS made a tool similar in Vista, to the
one in XP, so i made a backup in XP, formated and sold the comp, bought a new
one, this time with Vista installed, and now i can't get my contacts and
mails back. (That's the only thing i used to backup, rest i can live without.)
So how can i retrive the info in the USMT2.UNC folder..?!
