How do I read N360 backup files when they are encrypted?

Posted: 23-Apr-2022 | 12:49PM · Edited: 23-Apr-2022 | 12:54PM · 2 Replies ·

When Norton 360 does a backup of my files to an external hard drive, the files are heavily encrypted with no extensions.

For example, 12231D3ZA008-603B-4N47-B56S-4B9112CW7E5C (not the actual name in case someone can read it)

How am I suppose to read these files?
