Explanation

Enabling open file backups allows the backup software to copy files that are currently open or in use by applications. This ensures that even if a file is actively being modified during the backup process, it will still be included in the backup. Ensures consistency of backed-up data, especially for files that are frequently accessed or modified. Prevents data loss due to files being skipped during backup.
