Archived info:

Windows XP Professional Edition and XP Home both ship with NTBackup. But
only XP Pro installs NTBackup by default. You can install NTBackup for XP
Home by performing the following steps:

Insert the XP Home CD-ROM.
Navigate to the VALUEADD\MSFT\NTBACKUP folder.
Double-click the ntbackup.msi file to install NTBackup.

For OEMs (purchased from Dell,Compaq etc), they might not ship the Operating
System CD. In that case, you can download ntbackup.msi from here:
