NBP filename suffix is mostly used for Mathematica Player Notebook Format files. Mathematica Player Notebook Format format was developed by Wolfram Research. NBP files are supported by software applications available for devices running Linux, Mac OS, Windows. NBP file format, along with 1326 other file formats, belongs to the Data Files category. Users are advised to use Mathematica software for managing NBP files, although 2 other programs can also handle this type of file. Mathematica software was developed by Wolfram Research, Inc., and on its official website you may find more information about NBP files or the Mathematica software program.
Below you will find an index of software programs that can be used to open NBP files divided into 3 categories according to system platform supported. Files with NBP extension, just like any other file formats, can be found on any operating system. The files in question may be transferred to other devices, be it mobile or stationary, yet not all systems may be capable of properly handling such files.
There can be multiple causes why you have problems with opening NBP files on given system. What is important, all common issues related to files with NBP extension can be resolved by the users themselves. The process is quick and doesn’t involve an IT expert. The list below will guide you through the process of addressing the encountered problem.
The main and most frequent cause precluding users form opening NBP files is that no program that can handle NBP files is installed on user’s system. The most obvious solution is to download and install Mathematica or one to the listed programs: CDF Player, DF Player. The full list of programs grouped by operating systems can be found above. One of the most risk-free method of downloading software is using links provided by official distributors. Visit Mathematica website and download the installer.
If you already have Mathematica installed on your systems and NBP files are still not opened properly, check if you have the latest version of the software. It may also happen that software creators by updating their applications add compatibility with other, newer file formats. If you have an older version of Mathematica installed, it may not support NBP format. All of the file formats that were handled just fine by the previous versions of given program should be also possible to open using Mathematica.
If you have the latest version of Mathematica installed and the problem persists, select it as the default program to be used to manage NBP on your device. The process of associating file formats with default application may differ in details depending on platform, but the basic procedure is very similar.

Sometimes in order to access files user need to have administrative privileges. Log in using an administrative account and see If this solves the problem.
If the system is under havy load, it may not be able to handle the program that you use to open files with NBP extension. In this case close the other applications.
Latest versions of programs and drivers may help you solve problems with Mathematica Player Notebook Format files and ensure security of your device and operating system. It may be the case that the NBP files work properly with updated software that addresses some system bugs.
