FTP.EXE vanished

[Rose Corrigan]

Where can I get a replacement file for FTP.EXE ?

The file has disappeared, I suspect it happened after
doing a Windows automatic update!

From a command prompt you can expand a new copy of the file. Use the newer
version from either a service pack or from the Windows 2000 install CD=Rom.

expand E:\I386\ftp.ex_ %windir%\system32\ftp.exe


An example to extract a service pack files without installing them, execute
J:\SP4\win2ksp4_en.exe /x
Then when prompted, specify a directory to hold the extracted files.
