Software Questions and Answers - Installing ntbackup on Windows XP Home

Question: How do I reinstall the file backup utility? I can not find it anywhere. I checked the Start, All programs, Accessories and tools and it is not there. Thank you.

Answer: If you have Windows XP Home Edition it does not come with the backup program (ntbackup). You can however add the backup program from Windows XP Professional to the Home edition. Once installed you can run it from Start, then Run, type in ntbackup and click Ok. Check here for instructions on how to add it to Windows XP Home.
