Open BKS File

The BKS file extension has a few different uses or associations, which require various applications to open and use them. This article will cover possible formats and ways to manage files with the BKS file extension. To make it more comprehensible, we will discuss each use in a separate section.

Microsoft Windows NT Backup Set

BKS files can be associated with the Microsoft Windows NT Backup Set, a backup utility that records all your data and settings on your computer. This utility was present in Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 and was replaced in later versions of the operating system.

To open a BKS file in this context, you would need to either have an older Windows operating system or use a third-party backup tool compatible with these files, such as AOMEI Backupper. Additionally, you can restore these backups in a newer version of Windows using a removable storage manager to access the BKS file.

Blaise Database

BKS files can also be related to the Blaise Survey Processing System developed by Statistics Netherlands. This system is used for collecting complex survey data in various fields, including social sciences, health, and marketing. A BKS file in this case would contain a Blaise database, which includes questionnaire data and metadata for organizing and accessing information.

To work with a BKS file as part of a Blaise database, you would require the Blaise software suite (either the desktop or server version). Visit the Blaise Download Center to obtain the latest version of the software along with the documentation.
