Open with Microsoft Office Accounting. Available for Windows.

What is a .SBB file?

The .SBB file extension is used for a type of file known as an Office Accounting Company Backup File. This kind of file is specifically created by a program called Microsoft Office Accounting. This program was designed to help businesses manage their finances and banking activities online. The .SBB file itself is essentially a backup of another file type called .SBD, which is the main accounting database file where all the financial data is stored. When you create a backup, it means you are making a copy of your important data so that it won't be lost in case of a computer problem or data corruption.

The .SBB file is important because it ensures that there is an extra copy of the company's financial information. This can be very useful in various situations, such as when the software is being upgraded. During an upgrade, the program automatically generates an .SBB file to make sure that all the existing financial data is safely backed up before any changes are made. This way, if something goes wrong during the upgrade, the company's financial data can be restored from the .SBB file.

To open an .SBB file, you would typically use the Microsoft Office Accounting software, as this is the program that originally creates and understands these files. These backup files are quite useful for businesses because they help in protecting the company's financial data. They can also be used to send financial information to an accountant in a format that is easy to transfer and open on another computer. Additionally, if a business needs to move its accounting data from one computer to another, the .SBB file makes this process easier and safer.

However, it's important to note that Microsoft stopped developing the Office Accounting software in 2009. This means that the software is no longer updated or supported by Microsoft. If you are using this software and its associated .SBB files, you might need to consider how to access and manage your financial data in the future, given that the software may not be compatible with newer computer systems or operating systems.
