Backup file is missing from my windows 98 SE CD
I am trying to backup my files to upgrade to windows XP Pro. The backup file
is not in the systems Accessories, tools section. I tried to install it going through the Start, Setting, Control pannal, Add / Remove programs. Windows setup system. I am promted to incert the Systems CD and when I do I get a message that MSBACKUP.COM can not be located. For some reason the backup program is not on my Windows 98 Second Edition CD for PC without Windows. I was directed to microsoft web site to down load it, but I have spent hours looking for it and have not been able to locate it. Can some one direct me to the proper place on the site to locate it. |

Backup file is missing from my windows 98 SE CD
There is no MSBACKUP.COM in a Win98 SE CD (or any Win98 CD AFAIK)
There is: msbackup.chm msbackup.cnt msbackup.exe msbackup.hlp Msbackup.exe is the executable image on my Win98 SE, though I have never dared use it. ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP Windows - Internet Explorer http://dts-l.org/index.htm On Sun, 30 Sep 2007 16:43:00 -0700, in microsoft.public.win98.apps, RedThoJr wrote: I am trying to backup my files to upgrade to windows XP Pro.
