Hello Nuria M,

I’m Gunasekar and I will be happy to help you with your question, I am a Microsoft consumer like you.

What is the purpose of the . Bin file? The file extension has numerous applications. These files are utilized by a wide range of computer software for a number of functions, including DVD backup images and anti-virus updates, as well as photos and audio.

There are few Third-party software that reads the .bin extension files. This issue was discussed in a similar thread (Which might be useful)
