From a command prompt you can expand the file from your Windows 2000 install
CD-Rom. An example;

expand E:\I386\appwiz.cp_ %windir%\system32\appwiz.cpl

would expand a new copy to the \system32 directory.

Also you'll want to use the correct version for the service pack level
you're at. So you may need to extract the file from a service pack.

To extract the service pack files without installing them, execute
J:\W2kSP4\W2KSP4.exe /x
Then when prompted, specify a directory to hold the extracted files.
