In search of ... backup program identification

[barney]

When it rains ...

This may be a bit odd  .  I need to identify the program that made a system backup from the files that it produced.  There are several sets of files dated a week apart, including .zip and .xml files along with a few that have no extension.  (There are about six (6) months worth of files for [apparently] weekly backups.)  However, the little - darling?  yeah, that's the word! - doesn't know what program was used to perform the backups.  Memory failure  .

Google searches have netted nothing on this.  There many,many,many pages on how to find the files produced by various backup programs, but not a one (1) I can find on how to identify the software that produced the backup files.

Any ideas on this one?

(The little darling is a software junkie, so I can't just try what's installed ... too many  .)

Try feeding the files to TrID.

Nice bit of software, thanks.  It didn't work  , but looks handy to have around  .

Finally found a GlobalCatalog.wbcat, which is a Windows backup file, so apparently s/he was using Win7's backup w/o knowing.  However, all the .wbcat files were moved to a common location, "I just wanted to keep it neat, so I did some housecleaning."    Oh, well, mebbe Win7 can figure it out  .  Or I can set Explorer to display creation date, I guess.  What a mess!

Dunno if this is any help,
