How to open NB7 file?

Programs to open NB7 file
Remember to download programs supporting NB7 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of NovaBACKUP with NB7 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the NB7 file still does not use the NovaBACKUP program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the NB7 file with the NovaBACKUP application.
Step 3. Update NovaBACKUP to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the NovaBACKUP program, it is possible that NovaBACKUP Output Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the NovaStor Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NB7 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the NB7 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our NB7 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover NB7 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NB7 file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged NB7 files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact NovaStor
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file NB7 except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move NB7 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
