.bak doesn't open after changing file extension to .dwg

I was working on a file in Autocad 2016 and saved it.  Then after, I downloaded AutoCAD 2022 and tried to open the file.  The previous changes were not saved.  So I went to look for the .bak file and it was not there.  I then opened AutoCAD 2016 and then checked the Autosave location for the .bak file and found it.  I changed the extension to .dwg, but it will not open in either 2016 or 2022.  In the recent documents, I can see the thumbnail of the file and can see that the changes I want are in there, but I cannot open the file.  What is the issue here?
