Navicat for PostgreSQL export view result profile file
File type: Settings, options, themes or skins file
A .nppev file is an export view result profile used by Navicat for PostgreSQL.
The file stores settings for exporting the results of a database view. It is a program-specific profile, not the exported data itself.

The NPPEV file extension is used by Navicat for PostgreSQL and Navicat Premium for an export view result profile. The profile preserves settings used when exporting view results so that the operation can be repeated without configuring the same options again.
Navicat for PostgreSQL and Navicat Premium are database management tools from PremiumSoft. An NPPEV file belongs to the export settings used by these applications and is not a general-purpose database or text format.
The associated Navicat applications are available for Microsoft Windows, Linux and Apple macOS. The file should therefore be handled by a compatible Navicat installation on the platform where the profile is needed.
Open the .nppev file with Navicat for PostgreSQL or Navicat Premium on Windows, Linux or macOS. Load it from the application's export view result or profile controls rather than opening it as a document.
If the file does not load, use the same Navicat product and a compatible installation that created the profile. A text editor or database application other than Navicat will not interpret its settings correctly.
An NPPEV file is a Navicat-specific export profile, so it normally has no useful standalone conversion. To move the settings to another environment, load the profile in Navicat where possible or recreate the export options manually, then perform the export in the required data format.
