    Need precise instructions to restore the backup files created by Windows Live One Care to my new computer ... As far as I can see the back up is created as a SQL Data Base... but there is not any direction , not any instruction to restore de backup in some usable way... I just see zipped files , and their catalogs... can somebody help me???

    You need to install OneCare on the new computer and then use the restore wizard to restore from another computer.
    Alterntively, you can manually extract the data from the .zip files using WinZip or other 3rd party compression/archive program and rejoin any large files that were split by OneCare's backup function using a rejoin utility such as this one -
