You can use Symantec System Recovery to explore files in a recovery point. You

Windows Explorer.
You can perform the following tasks on the assigned drive:
Run ScanDisk (or CHKDSK).
Perform a virus check.
Copy folders or files to an alternate location.
View disk information about the drive, such as used space and free space.
Run programs existing within a mounted recovery point.
