Backup data corruption usually occurs when the software application or the operating system crashes while the .BAK data file is open in memory. In most cases, headers or parts of the data file are not saved to disk causing the data corruption or the application to fail. Other causes of corruption are physical problems with the storage media, hardware malfunctions, natural causes, viruses, software errors, and human errors. In some cases of extreme corruption, data recovery of BAK files may not be possible because data recovery tools for Backups are not available. If you cannot open BAK files, the software application itself may be missing or corrupted on the system. In such cases, using a BAK Viewer may give you an indication if the Backup file is corrupt or if the application is corrupted. It may be possible to open the BAK file extension without Backup by using a viewer. If the Backup application is corrupted, reinstalling the application will fix the issue.
