Record marked as obsolete and not updated for a long time.
The nbf file extension is associated with the HTC Typhoon and Feeler smartphones, which run the Windows Mobile operating system and were developed by HTC.
An NBF file contains firmware upgrade data, including a ROM upgrade with a newer version of Windows Mobile for a compatible phone.
The format is obsolete and was used with HTC upgrade tools for these devices.
An NBF file is normally read by the HTC ROM upgrade utility on a compatible Windows PC. Select the upgrade package for the matching Typhoon or Feeler model and allow the utility to process the file.
It cannot be opened meaningfully as a document or media file. Using an upgrade file intended for a different device can make the phone inoperable.
There is no useful general conversion for an NBF file. It is firmware upgrade data, not a document or media format.
To update a compatible phone, use the HTC upgrade package rather than converting the file. Extracting or changing its contents is not a substitute for the supported upgrade procedure.
