The description how to make a PLC backup can be found within the <S5 for Windows® - Getting started> manual at page 52:
Anyway, if only a xxx.arv file is available, a project can be generated this way:
Establish a connection to the Internal S5 PLC Simulation:
By clicking on:

After that all blocks are transferred to the Internal S5 PLC Simulation:
Now a new STEP®5 project can be created:
By marking at least one block with the PLC Block List all blocks can be transferred to the PC:
