| Can anyone recommend trial or shareware software to restore .bkf files, except for Stomp's
"BackupMyPC"?
Thanks, CMA

The version of NTBACKUP that ships with XP (PRO and HE) and W2K creates and
restores .BKF files. I suspect, but do not know, that the file format
is the same with NTBACKUP and BackupMyPC -- NTBACKUP is rumored to be a
watered-down version of the product currently known as BackupMyPC.
Note that any restore runs the risk of overwriting the files on your HD;
in fact, that's why you do it. But the risk of restoring a .BKF when you
aren't sure that the restorer is compatible with the backerupper is extra
high.
