Resolved question

How do I use my backed up filed?

Had to have windows reinstalled. Had been backed up on Maxtor external drive. Called company they say to just paste this onto my desktop.
I did this but think I am missing something as everything just remains the same.
Do I have to tell my computer to do something with this backup which is sitting on my desktop in a folder?
