What is an NBR file

NBR files mostly belong to NCBI Virus Neighbor Analyzer. NBR files are used in different contexts. The primary use is as a virus neighbor data file produced by the NCBI Virus Neighbor Analyzer. This file stores information to compare virus sequences and lineages.

  • Virus Neighbor Data: Contains data for virus analysis. Open these files with the NCBI tool. More details are available at the NCBI Virus Neighbor Analyzer webpage.
  • Cisco Webex Recordings: Some NBR files use an MP4 structure to hold video recordings from Webex meetings. They are also known as Nero BackItUp backup files. Visit the Cisco Webex webpage for more information.
  • Novabench Benchmark Results: Other NBR files are formatted as JSON to store benchmark results generated by the Novabench tool. Check the Novabench webpage for details.

FilExt.com notes: Knowing the origin of your NBR file is key. If it comes from virus data analysis, use the related NCBI software. If it is from a meeting recording, open it with Cisco Webex tools. For benchmark results, a standard JSON viewer or the Novabench software may work.

How to open an NBR file

If you cannot open your NBR file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a NBR file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
