The .NBF file extension is associated with Backup NOW!, a popular affordable and user-friendly automated backup utility software. The NBF extension is used to create a special kind of archive, the Backup NOW! backup archive file, which contains an entire set of data or system resources in a package that can be easily backed up and restored. The backup archives are created when the program's Create Backup Archive task is executed, allowing users to store an entire directory tree, multiple drives, complete files, components, databases, applications and settings.
File Format
The .NBF files are usually compressed with ZIP compression to save disk space. When stored in the NBF format, the contents are encrypted with 256-bit AES encryption for security. The majority of the data elements in an archive NBF file consists of files while additional elements include: volume information, folder information, item information for each backed up item, log information, and a restore-order table.
Compatibility
The .NBF files are compatible with Microsoft Windows Operating Systems and are supported by various versions of Backup NOW! from DATTO Technologies Inc. Other related file extensions are .IBT, .IBF, .SCS, .DAT, .BAK, and .KFN.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .NBF) 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 .NBF 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 .NBF 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 .NBF 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 .NBF extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .NBF file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .NBF 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 .NBF file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .NBF file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .NBF file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
