Norton FileSaver was an older Windows utility associated with Norton Utilities, software published by Symantec. The utility used PNFD files to store its internal FileSaver data.
The PNFD file extension is probably associated with an earlier version of Symantec FleSaver. It is an obsolete file type.
Open a PNFD file with the version of Norton Utilities for Microsoft Windows that includes Norton FileSaver. The file may be read automatically by the utility rather than opened as a standalone document.
If the original Norton Utilities installation is unavailable, there may be no modern program that can open the file reliably.
PNFD is a proprietary internal data format, so it normally cannot be converted directly with a general-purpose converter.
If an older Norton FileSaver installation can read the file, use the software's available functions to recover or export the relevant data in another format. Otherwise, there is no known standard conversion method.
