The NETBOOT file is supported on 2 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the NETBOOT files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the NETBOOT file on each system platform.
What is NETBOOT file?
The file in the NETBOOT format belongs to the Developer Files category. It was designed by The Open Group. Additionally, the Developer Files category contains 1205 of other files. Unix Netboot Script is supported by 2 operating systems. These systems consist of Linux, Mac OS, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. It is recommended to use Mac OS X to handle this file. This is a program created by Apple, Inc.. This file type can also be opened by 2 other programs. You can use Linux operating systems, Unix in case Mac OS X cannot be used.
How to open NETBOOT file?
An often recurring problem with Unix Netboot Script is that NETBOOT is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that NETBOOT files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NETBOOT 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 Mac OS X
In this case, you should first verify that the Mac OS X application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Mac OS X in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file NETBOOT.

Remember to download programs supporting NETBOOT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X with NETBOOT files
If, despite the installed application, the NETBOOT file does not start in the Mac OS X application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Mac OS X application as the default for handling the NETBOOT file.
Step 3. Update Mac OS X to the latest version
If, however, after binding Mac OS X with Unix Netboot Script 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 Apple, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NETBOOT file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to NETBOOT files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. 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 NETBOOT file. Sometimes virus-infected NETBOOT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NETBOOT 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair NETBOOT file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact The Open Group
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted NETBOOT files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move NETBOOT to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. 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 this does not work either, restart the device.
