Hi
Has anyone successfully managed to restore file backups created with NT Backup in XP to a Vista machine? I've tried to use the Vista restore wizard but unfortunately it only recognises backups created by Vista!
Searching the web brings up references to a "an add on tool" that will do the job - but I can't find it. Any pointers anyone?
ThanksAlastair
I have just run into the same issue. You can workaround it though.
If you copy...
ntbackup.exentmsapi.dllvsapi.dllFrom a Windows XP or 2003 system32 directory to a new folder on your Vista install (I put it in c:\program files\ntbackup) it works just fine after ignoring the initial error message.
Hope this helps.Paul
This looks like it will do what you need without the hassle.
