I have a .qic file from the backup utility prior to a clean install of Windows Me. I have been trying to install the Windows Backup utility but it doesn't appear in the Add/Remove programs under Windows Setup. What other alternatives do I possibly have? Or does anyone know why it isn't showing up.

can't install Windows Backup Utility
- Thread starter iamjd
- Start date
you can install the Backup utility from the WinMe installation CD.
Insert the installation CD into your CD-ROM drive and close any automatically launched windows prompting you to install WinMe. Launch Windows Explorer, and click the plus sign (+) next to your CD drive's icon in Explorer. Click the plus sign to expand the Add-Ons folder and click the Msbackup folder to highlight it. In the pane to the right you will see two files: Backup.txt and Msbexp.exe. Double-click Msbexp.exe to install the program. Next, restart your computer and complete the installation. You've now installed Backup in the System Tools menu.

Windows ME makes it harder to install this gem: Why? (???)
This basically echoes the above:
Scroll down to Windows ME.
