8.

Correct Answers: B

A. Incorrect:

Although it is possible for backup files to become corrupted, there is

an incompatibility between the Windows 98 backup tool and the Windows XP

backup tool that is causing this problem.

B. Correct:

As described by Microsoft Knowledge Base article 305381, the Backup

tool included with Windows XP cannot open compressed backups created in Win-

dows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me. The only way to access the backup file

is to restore it by using one of those compatible operating systems.

C. Incorrect:

In this scenario, the problem is not likely to be caused by insufficient

file permissions.

D. Incorrect:

Windows 98 did not provide encryption for backup files and did not

have a dedicated administrator user account.
