Web Intelligence Backfill on Windows

In the Web intelligence manual, page 7 item 3 says "Export SPLUNK_HOME to the instance you want to backfill:"

How do you do this on windows?

If I run "backfill_all_windows.bat with the username and password at a command prompt, I get a bunch of "The system cannot find the path specified"

Any help appreciated...

Export from the *nix world is the same as defining an environment variable in Windows, you can do this from the system settings. For example, in Win7 this is settable through C:\Windows\System32\SystemPropertiesAdvanced.exe
