What is a BAK~ file? A BAK~ file is an auto-saved document created by AbiSource AbiWord, an open-source word processor. It stores a backup copy of the currently-open document that users can open to revert to the last auto-save of the document (e.g., .AWB , .AWT , etc.).

More Information AbiWord is a word processor developed by members of the AbiSource community and includes standard word-processing features. The software also supports various document formats, including .DOCX , .DOC , .ODT , and .WPD . If AbiWord quits unexpectedly on you, the program names BAK~ files with the original file name plus the .bak~ extension. For example, myDocument.abw has the auto-saved document myDocument.abw.bak~ . NOTE: Beginning with version 3 of AbiWord, AbiSource only actively develops the Linux version of the word processor. However, previous versions of the application are also available for Windows and macOS.
