If it’s not a FM book file, then only the system that created it should be able to read it. You could try opening it up with Notepad to have a look inside, but I suspect it’s just a bunch of gibberish if it’s a phone backup file.

Thanks for your answer. I just tried to open with notepad, but it doesn't do it. It'seems just a bunch of gibberish, as you have told you. Is there another way to read the content of this file??

Probably only with the device that created it – check their help files for their recovery from backup procedure.
