use can use NTBackup to restore your files, and if you are not able to get the files back then probably your get corrupted and you need a special piece of software to recover your data from .BKF files.

Usually data recovery of your important data is a place to test your luck and recovery of your lost data is mostly depend upon the circumstances when or how it get corrupted.
