    Windows Backup / NTBackup

    Hi,
    We have recently supplied a Vista PC to a customer. They have a requirement
    to backup various files and folders, and we are fiding that Windows Backup
    supplied with Vista doesn't have the flexibility required to select the
    required files. We have lab tested NTBackup on Vista and know this works, but
    we are worried about the license implications. Can anyone from Microsoft tell
    us if this is in breach of the Vista or XP license?

    You are unlikely to get a reply from MS here... better you call your local
    MS office.
