What is a .NB7 file?

The .NB7 file is a type of backup file. It is created by a program called NovaBACKUP, specifically by its versions 7 and 8. NovaBACKUP is a software used on Windows computers to help users save copies of their important files and system data. This is useful in case something goes wrong, like if files get accidentally deleted or corrupted, you can restore them from this backup.

The .NB7 file contains all the data that has been backed up, including both user files (like documents and photos) and system files (which are necessary for the computer to run properly). There is a limit to how big the .NB7 file can be, and this limit depends on a setting within the NovaBACKUP software. This setting is found under "Global Settings" and then "Devices" within the application, and it's called "Data Chunking." This setting allows users to manage the size of their backup files.

To open a .NB7 file, you would typically use the NovaBACKUP software. Specifically, you can open it with NovaStor NovaBACKUP Professional 17, which is a version of the software designed for professional use. However, it's important to note that starting from NovaBACKUP version 10, the software introduced a new format for backup files, called .NBD. This means that the .NB7 files are a bit outdated. But the good news is, if you have .NB7 files, you can upgrade them to the newer .NBD format using the newer versions of NovaBACKUP. This can help ensure your backup files are in the most current format, which might be more secure and efficient.
