    The Drawing Recovery Manager (DRAWINGRECOVERY) lists recoverable files after a program or system failure.

    Answer: RECOVER

    RECOVER opens and repairs a damaged drawing that can't be opened the usual way.

  5. How do you make AutoCAD use a .bak backup file?

    Answer: Rename its extension to .dwg

    A .bak file is a previous copy of the drawing, and renaming it to .dwg lets you open it.
