    How can i access older backup files that were backed up
    using Windows 95 and 98 in Windows XP. I have tried to
    open several of the files but have had no sucess. back
    files are all **.QIC, with ** denoting the name of the
    file.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Default Re: Old Backup Files

    Sorry but this is not supported in WindowsXP. The only way this will work if
    you restore your files on some Windows9X operating system and copy restored
    files to WindowsXP.
