Backup is gone...how get back?

J

jtsnow

I was using the Backup utility that comes with XP and is Systems Utilities
folder.

I installed Norton Ghost backup to try and the Windows backup utility is now
not in the menu.
I un-installed Ghost and the Windows backup utility is still no in the menu.

How can I get the Windows Backup utility back into the Utilities folder.? I
would like to use it for backing up files vs Ghost.

Thanks for any tips!

Manually create a shortcut here with the command-line
NTBACKUP.EXE

The installation of Norton Ghost will not remove NTBackup. Something else
must have happened. Do a search for ntbackup.exe. It is likely in the
\Windows\System32 . Then create a shortcut to it in System Tools. To do that
right click your Start button and select Explore. That should open you to
the Start menu. Expand Programs->Accessories-System Tools and create the
shortcut there.
