| Microsoft Dynamics NAV Backup Format | Microsoft | Backup Files |
The FBK file extension is associated with the Microsoft Dynamics NAV, which is an enterprise resource planning (ERP) software package for businesses. FBK stands for ‘final backup’ and is a snapshot of the business’s data taken at a point in time. It’s a compressed backup of the Navision database used as an archive to save the business’s data and can be updated or restored from if needed.
FBK files contain a copy of all repository layers, such as table schemas, data, code units, and reports. FBKs simplify the process of restoring a database, as this can be done using just the FBK file without requiring any external files.

Other database backup file extensions related to this one include FBA, .FB2, .NYF, and .NSA. These are also compressed archive files specific to different database systems.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .FBK) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .FBK extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .FBK file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .FBK extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .FBK extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .FBK file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .FBK file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .FBK file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .FBK file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .FBK file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
