Question
Hi, I backed up most of my computer files to an ext. usb drive.Now I need to retrieve that info. and transfer to my computer, however I have been confronted with microsoft unable to open file. Do you know which software is available to open this file, is there a free trial version since most likely I will use once. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. By the way I have never done this transfer of data from usb drive to pc. Thanks.

Answer
Luis,
How did you transfer the data to the USB drive and how did you transfer them back to the PC? Did you just drag and drop or "copy to", how?

Here is what I found on the .sv2i file: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/powerquest.nsf/5eca4fdb4ac8237588256e97004a...

It seems it is a system restore file.

Let me know more and we'll try and get this fixed.

Keith
