Opening CHECK Files

CHECK	File extension: CHECK
	File type:	verification file

What is a CHECK file?

CHECK files mostly belong to SQLite. CHECK files are used for verifying the integrity of software or data. They appear in different internal formats and serve a similar purpose: to check that no unauthorized changes have been made.
For example, one type of CHECK file uses an SQL format and acts as a SQLite database status file. This file holds internal data that confirms the database or application is intact. You can inspect this type with an SQLite viewer; see more details at SQLite.
Other versions are compiled executables. One format is a Windows .EXE file used by updater programs (such as a self-integrity module in the NHM Windows Updater) to verify that its own data has not been tampered with.
Additionally, some CHECK files are Linux ELF executables, which perform binary data integrity checks in a Linux environment.

SQLite version: Holds internal status data for integrity checks.

Windows executable: Runs a self-verification routine as part of an update process.

Linux ELF executable: Checks binary integrity using system tools.

How to open CHECK files

You need a suitable software like SQLite to open a CHECK file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your CHECK file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a CHECK file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

NiceHash Miner (Update) by NiceHash
If your check file looks like "nhm_windows_updater_3.0.5.5.check", then it belongs to NHM. NiceHash Miner (NHM) allows you to earn cryptocoins when you provide idle computing power of your CPU or GPU. This file format is classified as Data.
Program Update
A .CHECK file is often part of an installation program to update an application. If you check you file on this page, it will be also checked if it contains a virus. This file format is classified as Data.

How to solve problems with CHECK files

Associate the CHECK file extension with the correct application.
Update your software that should actually open verification files. Because only the current version supports the latest CHECK file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available SQLite update.
To make sure that your CHECK file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
