When I click on Start--Programs--Accessories--System Tools--Backup, the
Backup Utility will not open. I get about 2 seconds of the hour glass, and
then nothing.
I recently upgraded from Windows 2000 Pro by installing Windows XP via CD,
and then Windows XP Pro SP2 via download from the Mircrosoft XP site. The
Backup Utility always worked fine with Windows2000 Pro, but will not work
once I upgraded to XP Pro.
The ntbackup.exe files are shown on the computer:
ntbackup.chm C:\WINN\Help (This file repeated 3 times w/different
icons)
NTBACKUP.EXE -003F2417.pf C:\WINN\Prefetch
NTBACKUP.EXE - 2C362AB4.pf ditto
ntbackup.exe C:\WINN\system 32
ntbackup.exe C:\WINN\ServicePatchFiles\i386
I obtained a copy of the ntbackup.msi off the web , and tried to install it,
but got this message:
"A network error occurdred while attempting to read from the file.
C:\Documents and Settings\------\Desktop\ntbackup(1).msi"
This is the same file I used to load Windows Backup Utility on my wife's new
Dell Computer with XP Home Edition.
Anybody got any ideas as to what I can do to get the Windows Backup Utility
to open on my computer?
