How to open file with .BIN extension?

Don’t you know what program to use to convert the .BIN file? Do you want to convert a .BIN file into a different format? Below you will find helpful information.

File extension .BIN

Full Name Developer Category
CD/DVD Binary Image Format N/A Disk Image Files
.BIN

The BIN file extension is a binary disc image used by various software applications for storing multiple files into a single, compressed binary file. Commonly found on both Windows and macOS operating systems, the BIN file is a convenient and efficient way to share data between different programs and platforms. It can store files in either s single forma, or split into multiple files of a specific size.

Description

The contents of BIN files are stored in binary form, which means they can be composed of any type of data regardless of the format used by the parent application. Therefore, BIN files are quite versatile as they contain audio, video, images, text documents and executables, program files and other various types of data. To create a BIN file, the associated software application has to “burn” or write the binary content onto a virtual disk.

Similar File Extensions

In addition to BIN, other similar file extensions include: .DMG, .ISO, .IMG, .CUE, .VCD, .BWI, .GI, and .TAO. All of these extensions are recognized by widely-used programs such as Apple's Disk Utility, ISO Buster, Daemon Tools by Disc Soft Ltd., Power ISO by Power Software Ltd., CloneCD and BlindWrite.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .BIN) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .BIN extension.

When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.

Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .BIN file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .BIN extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .BIN extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .BIN file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.

Other instructions

If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .BIN file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.

In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .BIN file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .BIN file) will be extended to the maximum.

It is also good to check

  • if the .BIN file has no errors
  • or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
In such a case it is best to try to download the .BIN file again from the same source on the Internet (or look for another source). If you received the file from another person, ask this person to re-send it. However, if the file was copied from some media, repeat the copying operation.
