Corruption in BKF causes file to get damaged to core, and hence it is not in valid Windows 2000 backup file format. When Windows 2000 opens a .bkf file, it first checks if the backup file is valid or not. It means it checks if its structure in valid Windows 2000 backup file format or not. In case file is damaged, it throws error messages like: “The backup file is unusable. You must erase it, or choose another file and restoration process completely stops.

Precautions for Backup Operations:
To check integrity of a backup file, you can select “Verify data After Backup” advance option while performing any backup operation. This option is provided to make sure that backup process is completed successfully and integrity of .bkf file and its structure is maintained. You can also check for backup report to avoid any such kind of errors while restoring.
