XP SP2 Duplicate Finder Tool

Oct 10th, 2008

I used the Windows support setup wizard.

It finished installing the support tools.

I can't find where it was installed to.

I typed in the Run dialog box: Dupfinder.

I received an error... not found

Has anyone tried to download the XP Service Pack 2 support tools?

Thanks,

John

The Support tools package is also on the XP installation cd, and it will install to the folder you point it at. To find it, go Start, All Programs, Windows Support Tools and open the command prompt. It will have as a starting directory the folder of Support Tools. Or try a search for.. oh, I dunno, apimon.exe or bitsadmin.exe.
The Run command will not work unless the path to the command is included in your Environment, or you type the pathname.
