How to Restore a QIC Backup File

A QIC file is a backup file in Windows 95 and 98. QIC files are similar to zip files. Each QIC file is an archive that contains multiple files. QIC files can only be recovered from computers with Windows 95 or 98. Later versions of Windows save backup files as BKF files, and they do not include a backup utility that recovers QIC files.
