How to Restore Qic Files in Windows XP
QIC files are a backup file format that was utilized in Windows 95, 98 and ME. QIC files are generally considered incompatible with the Windows XP operating system, as Windows XP uses a completely different file system for backup purposes. While you might assume that the only method to salvage your QIC files is to use an older version of Windows, you can open QIC files under Windows XP through the use of some third-party backup software.
