Backup missing on Windows XP Home Edition machines

[David Ward]

I have three computers running Windows XP Home Edition.
None of them have the backup utility in the system tools
folder.
And I can not find it when doing a search on the C drive.

What do I have to do to get this loaded?

Hi David

You can find it on the XP Home CD in the valueadd\msft\ntbackup folder.
