About NCT files

The .nct file extension primarily represents two completely different formats: a Building energy calculation database used by the National Calculation Methodology (NCM), and a CD/DVD cover design template created by Nero CoverDesigner. The NCM database is typically built on the JetDB engine, while Nero templates utilize either XML or a proprietary binary structure. Both formats suffer from severe accessibility limitations. NCM files require specialized, government-approved building engineering software or Microsoft Access database tools to open, trapping raw analytical data inside a proprietary shell. Nero CoverDesigner files restrict your print designs to legacy software, a major disadvantage since optical media is largely obsolete and the required application is rarely installed on modern machines. Furthermore, a small percentage of .nct files belong to the deeply obsolete Now Contact address book software. Drag and drop your file here to analyze and convert it - free, online, and without installing software. For data extraction, convert NCM .NCT databases to CSV or XLSX to edit the raw metrics in standard spreadsheet tools. For archiving and printing Nero CD labels, convert them to PDF to ensure layout accuracy, or to JPG for quick web sharing.
