Bak-files are only created when using any of the repair tools of Mp3/Tag Studio, not the tagging/renaming tools (it is also optional for the repair tools). The normal way to do it would be to first perform the repair, then verify that the repair procedure had the desired effect on all the files, and then delete the bak-files (which are copies of the original files).

Sure, you can e.g. use the "Direct rename files" tool to rename all the bak-files to the original names in a snap.
