Is it possible to view the contents of an unknown file type (.backup) on pc? - Puffer Fish - Jul 15, 2016
Im using android phone and i made a user data backup file using the recovery mode, then its saves to my SD Card ( about 2gb ) - userdata_63545blahblahblah.backup - i factory reset my phone using the recovery mode. Now i tried to restore the backup file from SDCard using the recovery mode, suddenly it fails. I wonder why. The only thing i need to recover is all of my videos / souveneirs of my kids , and family :( , Is there any way how i could view its content using PC? While its currently on (.backup) format?, I would be highly appreacite any kind of help.

Are you sure that the extenstion is ".backup" and not "backup.ab"?

It was generated using the Recovery Mode, It was .backup1 before and i tried to recover it and it didnt worked so i renamed it to .backup and still doesnt want to restore/recover.
