| | Re: ntbackup is missing Windows automatically uncompresses when you copy (you can just drag and drop from the cd). You will have to add the last character to the file name "bazad" <noresponse@nowhere.not> wrote in message news:%23cJnlh1CHHA.4832@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >I found > > ntbackup.ex_ > ntbackup.hl_ > > files. > > How do I extract them? > Are there any other files I need? > > "John Barnes" <jbarnes@email.net> wrote in message > news:%23h%23gtL1CHHA.4060@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... >> It is on your XP install cd >> >> >> "bazad" <noresponse@nowhere.not> wrote in message >> news:41E4C266-8DED-4AAC-9AB5-41DA00D8652C@microsoft.com... >>>I backed up my Windows XP files on external drive using ntbackup.

| | Re: ntbackup is missing I have Windows XP PRO. I used expand.exe to extract content of the ntbackup.exe. But it now requires ntmsapi.dll. How far should I go and is it really safe?
