What is an NSX file?
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:
The NSX file type covers different formats for different programs. But the following two file formats are common:
- 40% of all NSX files internally use the ZIP format, so several files are compressed and saved in one NSX file. 4 to 150 compressed files are common. You can see the included files and images by renaming the file extension to .zip and then double-clicking it. The files are on average 180 KB in size and range from 1 KB to 13 MB. The files contain the following words: config, json and note. These files can be linked to admin and trev, and usually contain person-related data.
- 30% of all NSX files are Index Apollo Database Engine files. If you open these files in a text editor, you will see only illegible characters. The files are 3 KB to 170 KB in size, with a median of 9 KB.
All other NSX files (30%) have different formats, often e.g. JSON, XML and xof. Often described as altium or projet. Just click the "Choose your .nsx file to analyze" button on this page to find out what your NSX file is.
