Extension: Keep My Notes Backup File

Developer: KiteTech

The ‘.kmnb’ file extension signifies a backup file created by Keep My Notes, a note-taking application developed by KiteTech for Windows and macOS operating systems. These backup files are crucial for data recovery; they contain a complete snapshot of your notes, preserving not only the written text but also any formatting applied (like bolding, italics, bullet points, etc.) and any attached files, such as images or documents. Losing your primary note file can be devastating, especially if you haven’t regularly backed up your work elsewhere, so understanding the role of ‘.kmnb’ files is essential for maintaining data security and avoiding potential loss of important information. The file format is proprietary to Keep My Notes, meaning it’s specifically designed for use within that application and isn’t readily compatible with other note-taking or text editing software.

To open a ‘.kmnb’ file, you must have Keep My Notes installed on your computer. The application automatically manages these backups, typically storing them in a designated backup folder within your system’s files. You generally don’t need to manually open them; Keep My Notes will automatically restore your notes from the ‘.kmnb’ file if your main notes file is corrupted or lost. However, if you need to locate the backup files for manual restoration or troubleshooting purposes, check the application’s settings or support documentation for the default backup location. If you no longer have Keep My Notes installed, attempting to open the file outside the application will likely be unsuccessful. In such instances, contacting KiteTech support might be necessary to recover your notes.
