The .PBB file extension is associated with the Procomm Plus Bulletin Board System, a communications software developed by Delrina's AT&T Paradyne. It is a text file format that stores data related to the bulletin board conversations in a BBS. Specifically, it records the user ID, alias, user profile information, chat message text and any commands that would be used with the chat session.
Technical Details
The.PBB file consists of ASCII-encoded plain text, and utilizes the basic ANSI escape sequences to draw objects on the screen. It also uses 'etx pair' tags to denote formatting options such as bold text, underlining, italics or colors. Furthermore, the.PBB file can contain a range of object types such as images, formatted documents, and video clips which are encoded in Base64 format. .PBB files are compatible with Procomm Plus, Procomm24K, Access Plus Communications Manager and other similar software.
Similar File Extensions
Other similar file formats related to.PBB include: .PBT, .DSS, .BBS, .BCM, .CMP, and .FLG
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PBB) 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 .PBB 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 .PBB 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 .PBB 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 .PBB extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PBB file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PBB 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 .PBB file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PBB file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PBB file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
