Identity Safe data backup - NIS 2012

In NIS 2011 the Identity Safe data backup file was a .NPM file. In NIS 2012 the data file is a .DAT file (or .CSV file without passwords). The .NPM file size is (for my data) 640 KB and the .DAT file size is only 100 KB. Is it right ? And why was changed the file extension in NIS 2012?

Hi,

 

NPM file format is not supported in NIS 2012, but you can import you old .NPM file to the latest NIS 2012.

The file size might vary but that's not an issue.

Thanks Prasanna. Why was changed the extension (and the size)? That is what I mean:

Hi Nohere,

 

You are right!. 

 

In NIS 2012 we have backup format is .DAT file or .CSV file but still you can import the .NPM file to NIS 2012.

 

We are saving identitysafe data(profile) with .DATextension so we can easily import whole identity data using import identity safe option in identity safe option,

 

You can import local profile,Portable profile through import data in identity safe option 

        can convert local to online using the same option 

 

Hope this helps

 

Thanks,

Done. Thanks again Senthil.

Maybe you can import NPM files to 2012 but I can't and I'm sorry I went to 2012.  It's cost me money because I couldn't login with my online broker on time.  $250,000.00

I'm having the same problem my NIS 2012 WILL NOT import my backed up .NPM file.  PLEASE HELP I have so many passwords I don't even know what they are...
