Urgh. There are some files in /windows that you can't copy while windows is booted, so I can't just drag and drop /windows to D: and I can't copy them to the external.

And you can't recursively copy directories in windows recovery console mode.

If I reinstall XP, those files will then be open when the new copy of XP boots, and won't stand for being overwritten by the old copies.

Can I copy those files in safe mode?
