Microsoft Windows Rollback Script Format | Microsoft | Backup Files |
The RBF file extension is a Windows Installer Rollback File. It is a backup created by Windows Installer for every program that it installs. Each program has an associated Windows Installer Rollback File in case the installation fails. This file is used to undo the changes made to the system during the installation process.
The RBF file stores information about what was changed and any other relevant data. In case of an installation failure, it can be used to put the system back into the state it was before the installation process began. The RBF rollback file is a vital part of the Windows Installer process and helps keep the system running smoothly.
Other File Extensions Related to RBF
Other related file extensions are: RBR, INI, MSI, MST, and PCP. All these files are associated with the Windows Installer, either by creating or managing the installation process.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .RBF) 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 .RBF 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 .RBF 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 .RBF 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 .RBF extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .RBF file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .RBF 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 .RBF file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .RBF file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .RBF file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
