I think you mean Astro File Manager, ok, so open it up. Press the home button at the top left. Press tools, select application manager/backup. Now it will load the list of applications that you have installed on your phone. Wait for it to load, it may take a little while. So now you can check the ones that you want to back up. If they are say private by them, you cannot back those up with Astro, you'd need to be rooted to back those up. But if the the font for an app is blue or white you can back it up. You may later on see apps in red font, this means that the app you now have installed on your phone is newer, or of a later version that the same app that you have already backed up.
So now to reinstall your apps after your wipe, just be sure to have copied all of your files from your sd card over to your computer before you wipe it.
After the wipe, bring the folder named backups back over to your sd card. That is where all of the apps that you backed up are. So don't move them around or anything, just keep everything in that folder and move it back to your sd card. Then download astro from the market again, and go back to the menu, select tools --> application manager/backup and then select the backed up apps tab on the top. This will show you all of the apps that you recently backed up from before your wipe. Select the ones you want installed by marking the check box, then select install in the upper left corner. From there you will be able to install those backed up apps as normal. Good luck!!
