What is NPF file?
The NPF file extension stands for the .NPF file type, which is associated with the NTI Partition File. This file format is designed to facilitate disk partitions created by NTI FLEXPro software, a data backup solution for personal and corporate use. It is commonly used to store partition information related to the .IMG, .LCV and .NFT file types. [ ⏩ ] NPF file extension

The NBK file extension is a script-driven backup definition file used by NovaBACKUP, a data and executable backup program. It provides users with options to customize the NovaBACKUP backup definitions for use in automated backups or system cloning, including allowing them to select particular partitions on a drive, as well as which folders, files, and applications should remain untouched during the process. The NBK file can be saved and edited at any time. [ ⏩ ] NBK file extension
How to convert the file from NPF to NBK?
To successfully convert the NPF file to NBK, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.NPF). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case NBK (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than NBK).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. NPF to NBK. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting NPF files to NBK files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension NBK, while before this step we had the NPF file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new NBK file, or not.
