Restoring files from Sonic DigitalMedia Plus 7's Easy Archive

So I've backed up my wife's "My Documents" folder which fit on 4 CD's using Sonic DigitalMedia Plus 7's Easy Archive, but I couldn't find a way within the program to restore the archived files from the CD. So after digging through windows help and realizing that the data is uncompressed on the CD's, I realized the xcopy will restore the files (in a merge fashion) where copying via the GUI caused the existing data and directories to be deleted.

So, my CD drive is "D:" and I changed directory to "C:\Documents and Settings\{account name}\My Documents\" . The command I ran on each CD was the following:

  cd "C:\Documents and Settings\{account name}\My Documents\"
  xcopy.exe "D:\All Files\C\Documents and Settings\{account name}\My Documents\*" . /C /S /Y

I hope that helps save someone else some trouble. I attempted to call Sonic, but was hung up on twice, so there may be an "official" way of doing this, but I had not luck with their FAQ, knowledgebase, and phone support.
