NTBackup.exe

[J.R. Hall]

After finally downloading and installing all of the
Windows XP Home updates and security updates, I noticed
that the Windows Backup program is now missing from
my "Accessories/System Tools" listing.

I cannot find NTBackup.exe or NTBackup.msi on the CD's
that came with my E-Machines system restore. Is there a
way to get these programs back on my computer from
Microsoft or elsewhere?

Download ntbackup.msi from here:

Open windows Explorer.
Is the file ntbackup.exe in your "C:\Windows\System32" Folder?
If it is Read the following carefully and then carry it out:
---
In explorer, Right-Click and HOLD on "ntbackup.exe."
!!No More Clicking on the way!!
Drag to, and Pause over, the "Start Button" (DO NOT LET GO)
You will see the Start Menu Open
Drag to, and Pause over, "All Programs" (DO NOT LET GO)
You will see the Program Menu Open
Drag to, and Pause over, "Accessories" (DO NOT LET GO)
You will see the Accessories Menu Open
Drag to, and Pause over, "System Tools" (DO NOT LET GO)
You will see the System Tools (Program List) Open
Drag into, and Pause over, "System Tools" Program List - Let Go!
Select "Create Shortcut(s)"
If necessary, Right-Click the New Shortcut and Rename to "Backup"
If necessary, Right-Click any of the Shortcuts and select "Sort by Name"
---
If it isn't in the Folder, Boot to the Windows CD, and do a "R"epair
Install.
