About BINARY files
BINARY files, often with the extension .bin, are a type of file that store data in a format that is not human-readable. These files can contain any kind of data, such as images, audio, or compiled software. BINARY files are versatile but can be challenging to work with due to their opaque nature.
Converting BINARY files to other formats requires specialized software. For instance, you can use HexEdit to examine and edit binary files, though it requires technical know-how. Converting BINARY files to formats like .iso, .img, or .dmg for disk images can be done using software such as 7-Zip or WinISO. For more information on BINARY files, visit the Wikipedia page on Binary Files.
Challenges in converting BINARY files include the risk of data corruption and the need for specific software tailored to the file's content.

The BINARY Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.
When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.
Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best BINARY converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
