And I just realized I have a couple hundred fonts to back up. My version of Windows is so old that it doesn't allow xcopy in DOS, so I have to copy each file individually.
Why not use a Linux rescue disk instead?And I just realized I have a couple hundred fonts to back up. My version of Windows is so old that it doesn't allow xcopy in DOS, so I have to copy each file individually.
Not much knowledge required with a live Linux CD and a window manager.Because.... I've never used Linux and also the thought never occurred to me. I have an XP CD with recovery console on it, so that's just what I ended up using. Ohw ell, I only have 500 more fonts to go, so I'll just grit my teeth until it's done and then try reformatting the laptop. This is all assuming the damn thing will even still run. I just have my laptop around for running Windows XP, since a lot of my games don't run on Windows 10 properly.
