BAK file

Is there a way to open a .bak file? For some reason my veg files on a current project are gone, or were never created, but the bak file is there.
It's the correct time also 11:45 pm last night, so I know it is the one I need.
The funny thing is I constantly save what I'm working on.

You can drag the bak file on top of the vegas icon (on the desktop) and the bak file will open up in vegas

Or you simply rename the file and remove the .bak extension. I wonder what .bak file Vegas will create if you open a .bak file? Hmmm... something to ponder.

i tried renaming but that didn't work.

Well it should have done (I've also done that on the past)... what did you rename it too?

It still needs to have a .veg file extension.
