What is a BKUP file?

BKUP files mostly belong to Backup Utility. BKUP files are backup files created by different systems. They are not a single standard format but can come in several types.

Image Backup: Many BKUP files use the JFIF format to store image backups. These are often produced by software dealing with JPEG images. More info is available at JPEG.org.

Toshiba Backup: Some BKUP files are generated by Toshiba Backup Utility. They serve as a copy of system or application data for recovery.

SQLite Database Backup: Other BKUP files come from SQLite systems. They function as write-ahead log files that help in database recovery. Further details can be found at SQLite.org.

FilExt.com notes: Different types require different applications to open and view them. For image backups, use an image viewer or rename the file to a common image extension like .jpg. For Toshiba files, the Toshiba utility is needed, and for SQLite backups, use SQLite tools.
