XP Backup Delima

[Phil in Texas]

upgraded from 98 to XP Home. Since it did not load the
backup option on upgrade I went in and manually loaded it
from the disk. Backups function properly, but they are not
associated with any program to be able to read or restore.
They are a BKF file format and should be readable from the
windows backup utility, but that program does not appear
on my program list to choose from to open this type of
file. Any ideas?
