You probably used a box as part of the boolean.
You can apply the boolean modifier and remove the box.
Always make a save copy of your project!

In the past I had a lot of backup files.
But nowadays I got enough self confidence to keep to number to 1.
I Only create a backup, if I want to experiment or having a clean version of the project.
You will get there …
Blender by itself keeps also backups! It’s the .blend1 file.
It’s a copy of the previous project save. You can increase this number in the preferences.
Have more then one safe copy.
Also a good habbit is to increase the number of UNDO’s.
Basic it’s (I believe 32) I set it to 256 (max).

In Blender 4.x+ you can Save Incrementally with Ctrl+Alt+s or thru the File menu. This adds a number to the end of your blend file’s name. If there is a number in the name it will increase that number. If there are multiple numbers seperated by non numeric characters then blender will increase the last number in the name. For example Project23.1.blend file blender would increase only the number after the period. In ProjctS22E01 blender would increase after the E.
