What is a PQB file?

PQB files mostly belong to Pleco. The PQB file format is used by the Pleco application as a specialized database file for managing dictionary data and flashcard records. It stores its contents using an SQL structure.
  • It holds structured tables with dictionary entries.
  • It also contains flashcard data used for study and review.
  • The design ensures fast data retrieval and integrity.
  • FilExt.com tip: To open and view a PQB file, use the Pleco app or an SQL viewer if you wish to inspect the raw tables. For more details, visit Pleco.

    How to open PQB files

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 PQB file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a PQB file directly in the browser:.
