Unpacking a PAK file

Hello all, I need help. I am an amateur game developer and I have a game on Steam. Recently though, my PC went through a catastrophic failure and I lost everything.

Here’s my question. I have access to the pak file of my game through Steam, but is there any way I can recover the master files using the PAK somehow?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Hi.
Someone else seems to have tried this same thing before.
Maybe you can try their solution?
