What sort of backup file is it (not that I know or do not know lowandloudinc, but don't give away any details to anyone you don't know / trust).

Are they php files or is it a sql file?

The SQL file can only be restored via phpmyadmin or ssh

Unedited files are not that bad. All you would have to do is reedit them and thats a peice of cake.
