Backing up Files

[jonwoodartist \(removethis\)]

When I follow the suggested
pathrograms,Accessories,Sytem Tools I do not find a
backup command in the system tools drop down. Where do I
find the backup utility?

Thanks for your help.

XP Home?

Backup is installed automatically on XP Professional, but not on
XP Home. If you have the complete XP Home CD, find backup on the
CD, in \ValueAdd\MSFT\NTBACKUP and install it yourself by
doubleclicking the file ntbackup.msi.

If you don't have an XP CD, you can download ntbackup.msi at

The NTBackup program that accompanies XP Home is limited in it's function.
Make certain you look at the Readme.txt file that accompanies the installer.
