I never used XP's file restore before. I tried it since you had so much
trouble and it is a real PIA to use. I put it on my server for you.
Right-click the below link, and "Save Target as...", rename it to
"notepad.exe", and save it in "C:\Windows\system32\"
You may need a copy in "C:\Windows\" if some of your existing shortcuts
point there too.
