AGGGGGG!!!! ://// ://// I accidentally deleted my original copy of my map after locking it with W3M map utilities, but i know it saves two files a .bak and a .w3b when you lock a map. Is there any way to get your map back from these files? Help is EXTREMELY appreciated! :D

.bak = working backup file
.w3b = protect backup file

so .w3b is backup file as you wanted.

im guessing you just change the name of <mapname.bak> into <mapname>.w3m to get the unprotected map
