What is an RPP-BAK file

RPP-BAK files mostly belong to REAPER. An *.RPP-BAK file is a backup file created by the digital audio workstation (DAW) software, REAPER. These files contain a backup copy of a REAPER project file, typically an *.RPP file. The project file stores all the data associated with a music project, including audio and MIDI tracks, edits, effects, automation, and other settings. REAPER automatically creates *.RPP-BAK files as a safeguard against data loss due to software crashes, power outages, or user error. The *.RPP-BAK file format is generally the same as the associated *.RPP file, which is a proprietary format specific to REAPER. This allows users to easily restore a previous version of their project by renaming the *.RPP-BAK file to *.RPP.
