Files with kgb extension are mainly compressed archives created using KGB Archiver. Looks like the program is no longer developed but still available on its SourceForge website.
Found 2 different file type records with the same kgb filename suffix.

File extension kgb is used for highly compressed archives created with open source program KGB Archiver. These files may also be encoded using AES-256 encryption, but usually have a kge file extension instead.
A .kgb file is a standard archive created with KGB archiver.
Seems that the official website is no longer available and the program is not further developed. It is however still available on its SourceForge website.
KGB Archiver can open and extract .kgb files.
KGB archiver also supports common ZIP compression, so you can extract the contents of .kgb files with the program and compress them to ZIP if needed.

The kgb file extension is also used for files encrypted with Kremlin Encrypt program, that provides an easy-to-use interface to powerful cryptography and can encrypt files one of six algorithms, including RC4 and Blowfish.
The kgb file is an archive that contains encrypted data.
You can decrypt the files with Kremiln Encrypt, provided you know the password.
Probably can be converted to other formats.
