What is BAK file?
BAK is .BAK file extension, which stands for Backup File. It is a backup copy of the original file that is usually created automatically by various programs. For example, Microsoft Word creates back up copies of documents with the .BAK extension. These files are used as temporary backups if the original file becomes damaged, corrupted, or lost. Technical Details Backing up data is essential because it ensures that important files can be recovered in case of a computer failure or data loss. [ ⏩ ] BAK file extension
Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from W2D to BAK?
To successfully convert the W2D file to BAK, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.W2D). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case BAK (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than BAK).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. W2D to BAK. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting W2D files to BAK files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension BAK, while before this step we had the W2D file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new BAK file, or not.
