What is a .AFI file?
The .AFI file extension is used for a special type of file called an AOMEI Backupper File Backup File. This is a kind of file that the AOMEI Backupper program creates to keep a safe copy of your files. AOMEI Backupper is a software made for computers that run Windows, and it helps people save copies of their files so they can get them back if something bad happens, like if the files get lost or damaged.
Think of an .AFI file like a safety net for your digital stuff. Inside this file, there's a backup, or a saved copy, of another file. If the original file ever gets messed up or disappears, you can use the .AFI file to bring it back.
To open or use an .AFI file, you need to have the AOMEI Backupper program installed on your computer. This is the software that knows how to read the .AFI file and can help you restore your lost or damaged file using the backup.
If you want to make an .AFI file, which means you want to back up some of your files, here's what you do in AOMEI Backupper: 1. Open the program and click on "Backup." 2. Then, choose "File Backup." 3. Pick the file you want to keep safe by making a backup and decide where you want to save this backup file, which will have the .AFI extension. 4. Finally, click "Start Backup" to begin the process.
It's important to know that AOMEI Backupper uses another type of file, with the .ADI extension, for making a complete backup of everything on your disk, not just individual files. This is useful if you want to back up your whole computer system, not just specific files.
