I was learning computer unit and file conversion systems. I know that each file format has its own type of encoding. I want to convert a binary file to text file. What are the methods to do it?
Method To Convert A Binary File To Text Using Any Tool
You can either write your own in any programming language to convert the binary file to readable text file format or can deploy particular software to do so. I’ll give you two easy methods to achieve your task.
Â
Method 1
- Open the file using Notepad++. If you don’t have Notepad++, download and install the latest version from the official website. After you open the file, click on ‘Save As.’ Save this file with the extension ‘.txt.’ Your file is converted to text.
Method 2
- In the view menu of Windows Explorer, click on the option to view file extension. Now change the extension of your file to .txt. Your text file is ready.
