WINDOWS SERVER BACK UP
Note: One thing to keep in mind is that you cannot recover backups with Windows Server Backup that were
created in earlier versions of Windows with Ntbackup. However, a read-only version of Ntbackup is freely
available if you want to recover data from backups created using Ntbackup, and can be installed to recover
files on Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7.
