How to open NBA file?
The most common problem when using Nero BackItUp Archive is that a specific NBA is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open NBA, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NBA file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Nero BackItUp
In this case, you should first verify that the Nero BackItUp application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Nero BackItUp in it.

Programs to open NBA file
Remember to download programs supporting NBA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Nero BackItUp with NBA files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the NBA file still does not use the Nero BackItUp program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the NBA file with the Nero BackItUp program.
Step 3. Update Nero BackItUp to the latest version
If, however, after binding Nero BackItUp with Nero BackItUp Archive there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Nero AG website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NBA file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The NBA file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to NBA files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our NBA file. Sometimes virus-infected NBA files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NBA file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged NBA files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Nero help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted NBA files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move NBA 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the NBA file again. However, some background programs may block the NBA file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
