What is a .NBK file?
The .NBK file extension is used for a NovaBACKUP Job File. This type of file is a script, which means it's a set of instructions, created by a program called NovaBACKUP that runs on Windows computers. NovaBACKUP is designed to help you save copies of your files and folders to protect them from being lost. The .NBK file tells NovaBACKUP exactly what to do when backing up your data. It lists which files and folders should be copied, where the copies should be saved (this is usually in a file ending with .NBD), and whether the backup should copy everything (a full backup) or just the changes since the last backup (an incremental backup).
To open a .NBK file, you need to use the NovaStor NovaBACKUP Professional 17 software. This program understands the instructions inside the .NBK file and can perform the backup tasks as described.
Additionally, NovaBACKUP allows you to set up a schedule for your backups. This means you can arrange for your computer to automatically back up your files regularly, like every day or week, or just one time at a specific date and time. This feature is very useful for making sure your important files are always protected without having to remember to do it yourself.
