It is sounding like the recovery did not succeed. If the backup failed to
recover even a single block of data it will cause the decompression to
fail. Windows doesn't really have all the best tools to debug these kinds
of issues.

Assuming you mean KB (KiloBytes) and not kb (kilobits), those files are
probably about the correct size if you don't have a ton of transactions.
My 15-year-old data file is 2.8 MB.
Note: Backups only work if you copy the data to another storage system
off your main system.
