What is an NSX file?

  • Synology Note Station backup: This NSX file uses a ZIP container to hold note data. You can view it with Synology NoteStation or a standard ZIP extractor. For more details, see Synology.
  • Navision index / Novell NetWare index: In some cases, the file works as an index used in database or Lotus Notes environments.
  • NativeScript project file: Here the file is based on JSON and is used to manage projects via NSB/AppStudio. Additional project details are available at NSBasic.
  • 3D model file: Certain NSX files contain 3D model data used by Nexon Game Studio and can be handled with tools like NifSkope. Visit Nexon for more info.
  • Nahimic audio settings file: In other cases, the file is in XML format and stores audio configuration data. More details can be found at SteelSeries Nahimic.
  • FilExt.com tip: The NSX extension is used by multiple software systems. Identify the internal structure (ZIP, JSON, or XML) to choose the appropriate tool for opening or editing it.

    How to open NSX files

    You need a suitable software like Synology NoteStation to open an NSX 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 NSX file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a NSX file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

    NSX format details:

    Every file has a defined file format, i.e. how the data is arranged in the file. Each file format has a unique extension and almost always a unique signature. For example, Microsoft Word documents have the extension .docx and the signature (usually the first 3 characters in this file) PK. If the file extension or signature does not match the file format, errors will occur when opening or editing the file. When there is a problem with a file, the first step to solving it is to determine the file format. Below you will find our evaluation of the NSX files:
