restoring with .bkf

[goincoconuts]

I am attempting to restore my files with a .bkf file I created. The problem
I am having is when I use the restore wizard to open the .bkf file. When
select the path to my external HD, where my .bkf file is stored, I cannot
find the ".bkf" file. All I get is "Recycler" and "System Volume
Information" folders. When I use a freeware version of .bkf file recovery
software I can see that the files I backed up are in the .bkf file. But I
can't seem to find that .bkf file when I use the backup recovery software
that came with Win XP.

This is the message I am getting after I select the M:/backup.bkf file to
restore. Any help you can give is very much appreciated.
