I moved xp backup bkf file to windows 7, but could not open bkf file through NTBackup restore utility because I received an error message “the backup file contains unrecognized data and cannot be used”.

How can I open bkf file in Windows 7 that were created in Windows XP?

I'm fairly certain that an NTBACKUP from Windows XP isn't compatible with Windows 7. You probably need the Windows NT Backup Restore Utility for Windows 7 and for Windows Server 2008 R2.

The utility restores backups that are made on Windows XP and on Windows Server 2003 to computers that are running Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
