| 93247 | 2002-10-26 18:48:00 | I am using Win98, which comes with Microsoft Backup Utility, saving compressed backups as a ".qic" file. It is a terrific program, with the nice option of updating only new and modified files. I use this nearly everyday and also put these .qic files onto a CD-RW. Evidently WinXP does not come with this backup utility. Can Win98's Microsoft Backup Utility be transferred over to WinXP? Or does WinXP come with a similar (no extra cost) backup utility? Thanks, Steve |

To learn how to install it have a look at the following link. How to Install Backup Utility from the CD-ROM in Windows XP Home Edition (support.microsoft.com) Hope this helps Regards Sam H |
