What is a NPF file?

NPF is a binary file format used for storing backup copies. NPF format is native to products offered by NTI (NewTech Infosystems).

NPF file can store backup of whole disk or single partition/volume. Backup data in NPF files can be restored using dedicated NTI tools available for Windows and Mac computers. NTI offers its software on paid basis with the exception of some HP notebooks that came with the sofware preinstalled.

How to open NPF files

If you cannot open the NPF file on your computer - there may be several reasons. The first and most important reason (the most common) is the lack of a suitable software that supports NPF among those that are installed on your device.

A very simple way to solve this problem is to find and download the appropriate application. The first part of the task has already been done – the software supporting the NPF file can be found in the table. Now just download and install the appropriate application.

Possible problems with the NPF format files

The inability to open and operate the NPF file does not necessarily mean that you do not have an appropriate software installed on your computer. There may be other problems that also block our ability to operate the NTI Backup Format file. Below is a list of possible problems.

  • Corruption of a NPF file which is being opened
  • Incorrect links to the NPF file in registry entries.
  • Accidental deletion of the description of the NPF from the Windows registry
  • Incomplete installation of an application that supports the NPF format
  • The NPF file which is being opened is infected with an undesirable malware.
  • The computer does not have enough hardware resources to cope with the opening of the NPF file.
  • Drivers of equipment used by the computer to open a NPF file are out of date.

If you are sure that all of these reasons do not exist in your case (or have already been eliminated), the NPF file should operate with your programs without any problem. If the problem with the NPF file has not been solved, it may be due to the fact that in this case there is also another rare problem with the NPF file. In this case, the only you can do is to ask for assistance of a professional staff.

How to associate the file with an installed software?

If you want to associate a file with a new program (e.g. my-file.NPF) you have two ways to do it. The first and the easiest one is to right-click on the selected NPF file. From the drop-down menu select "Choose default program", then click "Browse" and find the desired program. The whole operation must be confirmed by clicking OK. The second and more difficult to do is associate the NPF file extension to the corresponding software in the Windows Registry.

Is there one way to open unknown files?

Many files contain only simple text data. It is possible that while opening unknown files (e.g. NPF) with a simple text editor like Windows Notepad will allow us to see some of the data encoded in the file. This method allows you to preview the contents of many files, but probably not in such a structure as a program dedicated to support them.
