You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .dpb. Files with the file extension .dpb can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .dpb files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.

DataPilot backup files are created and saved in the DPB format by the DataPilot software, which was developed by Susteen as an application with integrated features for storing data from supported mobile phones connected or synched to a computer. Classified as backup files, these DPB files are appended with the .dpb extension, and the content of these DPB files usually includes SMS ( messages and phone book entry details saved by the user on his or her mobile phone and transferred to a computer with the DataPilot software. Images and other multimedia objects like audio and video clips in a supported mobile phone can also be saved in the DPB format and transferred to a computer using the DataPilot application. These DPB files can also be transferred from computers to connected mobile phones using the DataPilot program. Susteen developed versions of the DataPilot software for Mac and Microsoft Windows platforms, so users of these operating systems can install the DataPilot program to start opening and editing the content of these DPB files and to also transfer their mobile phone data to and from their Microsoft Windows and Mac computers. These DPB files can also be encrypted and protected with a unique, user-generated or program-generated password using the DataPilot software.

Launch a .dpb file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .dpb file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .dpb files aren't yet associated with it. In this case, when you try to open a .dpb file, you can tell Windows which application is the correct one for that file. From then on, opening a  .dpb file will open the correct application.

Be careful not to rename the extension on .dpb files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.

A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .dpb. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
