Extract text from UltraISO backup images (UIBAK)
To convert UIBAK backup images to another format, you need UltraISO or other Backup software.
To convert other file formats to the "UltraISO Backup" file type, you need software like UltraISO or a similar tool.
The .UIBAK file is a backup disk image generated by UltraISO. When a user edits an existing CD or DVD image file (such as an ISO) and saves the modifications, the software automatically creates a .UIBAK file to preserve the original, unmodified state of the disk image.
Managed primarily by UltraISO developed by EZB Systems, this format serves strictly as a safety net. The primary disadvantage of the .UIBAK file is that it is a closed, proprietary backup extension. Standard operating systems like Windows 11 and virtual drive software like Daemon Tools cannot mount or read a .UIBAK file natively. Users are artificially locked into the UltraISO ecosystem to restore their data.
The best conversion target for a .UIBAK file is a standard ISO file. Often, a .UIBAK file is merely an exact copy of the original image with a different extension. Changing the extension manually from .UIBAK to ISO will frequently restore complete functionality without the need for dedicated software.
Because this file format relies on a proprietary extension rather than a standardized structure, standard online converters fail to process it. They do not recognize the extension or the internal file headers. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format - like a standard ISO header hidden beneath the .UIBAK extension - viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your UIBAK file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert UIBAK file to ISO, IMG, DMG, VHD, VMDK, VDI, HDD, QCOW, QCOW2, RAW, VBOX or OVA, you can use UltraISO or similar software from the "Disk Image Auto-Backup" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert VFD, DMG, OVA, IMA, VBOX, ADF, PVS, VHD, OVF, ISO, DSK or IMG files to UIBAK, try UltraISO or another comparable tool in the "Disk Image Auto-Backup" category.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our UIBAK converter.
