What is an NBT file?

A .NBT file can be both a template for Nero BackItUp or a Named Binary Tag file created by Minecraft. The specific type of NBT file is determined by the program that created it.

  • NBT files are template files created by Nero BackItUp: These files are used to store templates for backup jobs. They contain information about the backup job, such as the files and folders to be backed up, the backup destination, and the backup schedule.
  • NBT files or Named Binary Tag files, binary files format used by the Minecraft game: These files are used to store data about entities, items, blocks, and other aspects of the game world. They are structured as a tree of tags, each tag having a name and a value.

It is important to note that NBT files created by Nero BackItUp are not compatible with NBT files created by Minecraft. This is because the two programs use the .NBT file extension for different purposes.

If you are unsure what type of NBT file you are dealing with, you can open the file in a text editor to view the contents. NBT files created by Nero BackItUp will typically contain XML code, while NBT files created by Minecraft will typically contain binary data.
