Whatever editor you are using is making a *.bak of the file you edited.
The changed one should have *.bat as it was originally called. The *.bak
file is what the *.bat was before you edited it.

Check and see if your editor has an option to not make a backup copy.
Just in case you make a goof and can't remember what you changed, I
do suggest you leave the *.bak feature active. You can always delete
those *.bak file later.
