extract file from backup
I backed up my laptop (Inspiron 9300) onto an external harddrive right before it completely crashed at the beginning of the month. I used the WindowsXP backup utility to do it. I then reloaded Windows onto my system and decided not to reload everything--as I saw it as an opportunity to have a cleaner machine. However, there is a Very Important file on the back up that I need to extract it is in the "Total system" file of the backup. Is it possible to extract just that one file, or do I have to open that file? And if I do open that file, will that reload Everything that was on my computer before it crashed? I hope I'm making sense here. Thank you to anyone who can offer some help!
