    hello,
    what the hell is an ooo file?
    i was trying to mount one of my paragon backups and for some reason in the folder it has a ooo file which is 40gb.
    im sure the 40gb file should be a .pbf
    because im sure the old full backups where .pbf files but the last two have .ooo files. both backups were done from the paragon winpe cd to a usb external drive.
    I have emailed paragon.
    in the program i can only add the 3.6kb .pbf file and it wont show the 40gb c: partition backed up.
    all i wanted to do was mount a backup acrhvie to look for a file.

    Has it possibly anything to do with OpenOffice ? OOo-file = Open Office old.

    A 40GB ooo fileo_O I would think ooo would be Erik's suggestion, but 40GB seems rather large for anything to do with OpenOffice!!!

    ooo? Well, it is getting close to Halloween :D

    What about .000 (zeros) extension? If so it may be one of the described file extensions shown here.

    I hope it isn't a chkdsk file because if it is you lost a big hunk of data from somewhere :eek:

    I recall seeing a "000" extension on a filename before and I think it was related to an archive backup of some kind.

    I use Paragon as well as Acronis and, yes, Paragon creates 000 files.

    If a web search is made using

    .000 extension

    the result will offer quite a few references to programs that create these type of files.
