最近，我在我的 Windows PC 上下载了一些 IT 软件，文件都是 . BIN和 .CUE 文件。为了使用它们，我需要将BIN文件转换为ISO映像并将它们安装为驱动器。
在本文中，我将提到几个免费和付费的实用程序，您可以使用它们将一种格式转换为另一种格式。一些程序只是从BIN转换为ISO，但大多数程序将多种格式转换为ISO并具有其他有用的功能。
如果您只需要执行一次转换，那么使用免费程序会更聪明。对于批量转换或持续转换，可能值得投资其中一项付费公用事业。
WinBin2ISO
WinBin2ISO是一个小型的免费软件程序，可以将BIN CD映像转换为ISO映像，仅此而已。这是我提到的第一个，因为它是免费的、可移植的（意味着它不需要安装），可以处理超过 2 GB 的文件，并且可以与Windows Vista、Windows 7、 Windows 8 和Windows 10一起使用。
这个程序只有 35 KB，非常小。我也喜欢这个程序，因为开发人员非常活跃，他的网站上有很多其他程序，他会定期更新。该程序按预期工作，对此真的没有什么好说的了。
WinISO
WinISO是另一个免费程序，但您必须下载较旧的 5.3 版本而不是较新的版本。标准(Standard)版是 20 美元，这还不错，但只有在您需要编辑、创建、转换、安装或刻录ISO映像时才有用。
幸运的是，您也可以使用免费版本完成大部分操作，它只是有一个看起来更旧的界面，这对我来说没什么大不了的。
您可以使用WinISO查看BIN、NRG和ISO文件的内容并创建可启动的ISO映像。您可以在链接中查看标准版和免费版之间的所有功能差异。(all the feature differences)
Any2ISO
顾名思义，Any2ISO 几乎(Any2ISO) 可以将任何文件格式转换为ISO映像。该程序的专业(Pro)版是 23 美元，但他们也有一个免费的精简版。lite 版本的唯一问题是它不适用于大于常规 CD 大小 (870 MB) 的文件。这有点小，所以对于大多数人来说，你要么必须购买它，要么使用我上面提到的免费程序之一。
该程序可以将一堆不同的文件类型，包括 7Z、DAA、DMG、RAR、XAR等转换为ISO图像。它还可以拍摄任何CD/DVD/Blu-ray并将其转换为ISO或BIN/CUE图像。此外，它可以使用任何文件夹并从中创建ISO映像。似乎精简版也可以完成所有这些任务，只是文件大小有限制。
电源ISO
PowerISO与(PowerISO)WinISO的付费版本几乎相同，但价格更高，为 30 美元。你可以免费下载它，但如果它没有注册，你只能处理大小不超过 300MB 的文件，这比Any2ISO免费版的限制要小。
总的来说，它是一款非常好的软件，可以按预期工作，但我不确定它是否值 30 美元，尤其是当你有几个免费选项时。显然，如果您需要一些额外的功能并且正在做大量的图像转换、图像刻录和图像创建，那么它可能是值得的。
魔术ISO
最后，还有MagicISO，这是一个自 2010 年以来就没有更新过的程序，售价 30 美元，但似乎仍然是将BIN转换为ISO图像的流行选择。
在创建、编辑、刻录、转换和安装ISO(ISO)映像方面，您可以执行与上述相同的所有操作，但我不确定为什么人们仍在购买已有数年历史的程序。你最好用你的钱来获得Any2ISO、WinISO或PowerISO。该程序运行良好，但不支持Windows Vista之后的任何内容。
希望上述实用程序之一将帮助您以尽可能最便宜的方式执行转换。如果您使用的程序与此处提到的程序不同，请随时在评论中告诉我们。享受！
5 Tools to Convert BIN Files to ISO Images
Recently, I downloadеd some IT software on my Windows PC and the files were all .BIN and .CUE files. In order to work with them, I needed to convert the BIN files to ISO images and mount them as a drive.
In this article, I’m going to mention a couple of free and paid utilities you can use to convert from one format to the other. Some of the programs just convert from BIN to ISO, but most convert multiple formats to ISO and have other useful features.
If you’re only needing to perform the conversion one time, it’s smarter to use the free programs. For batch conversions or conversions on an ongoing basis, it may be worth investing in one of the paid utilities.
WinBin2ISO
WinBin2ISO is a tiny freeware program that converts BIN CD images to ISO images and that’s it. It’s the first one I mention because it’s free, portable (meaning it doesn’t need to be installed), works with files over 2 GB in size and works with Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10.
Coming in at only 35 KB, this program is very small. I also like this program because the developer is very active and has a bunch of other programs on his website that he keeps updating on a regular basis. The program works as expected and there really isn’t much else to say about it.
WinISO
WinISO is another free program, but you have to download the older 5.3 version instead of the newer version. The Standard version is $20, which isn’t bad, but only useful if you need to edit, create, convert, mount or burn ISO images.
Luckily, you can do most of this with the free version too, it’s just got an older looking interface, which isn’t a big deal to me.
You can use WinISO to view the contents of BIN, NRG, and ISO files and to create bootable ISO images. You can see all the feature differences between the standard version and the free version in the link.
Any2ISO
As the name suggests, Any2ISO can convert pretty much any file format to an ISO image. The Pro version of the program is $23, but they also have a lite version, which is free. The only catch with the lite version is that it doesn’t work with files that are larger than a regular CD size (870 MB). That’s kind of small, so for most people you’ll either have to buy it or use one of the free programs I mentioned above.
This program can convert a bunch of different file types, including 7Z, DAA, DMG, RAR, XAR, etc. to ISO images. It can also take any CD/DVD/Blu-ray and convert that to an ISO or BIN/CUE image. In addition, it can take any folder and create an ISO image from that. It seems like the lite version can do all of these tasks as well, just with the size limit on the files.
PowerISO
PowerISO is pretty much the same as the paid version of WinISO, but it costs a bit more, coming in at $30. You can download it for free, but if it’s not registered, you can only work with files up to 300MB in size, which is smaller than the limit on the free version of Any2ISO.
Overall, it’s perfectly fine software and works as expected, but I’m not sure if it’s worth $30, especially when you have a couple of free options. Obviously, if you need some of the extra features and are doing a lot of image converting, image burning and image creating, then it could be worth the cost.
MagicISO
Finally, there is MagicISO, a program that hasn’t been updated since 2010 and costs $30, but still seems to be a popular choice for converting BIN to ISO images.
You can do all the same stuff as mentioned above in terms of creating, editing, burning, converting and mounting ISO images, but I’m not sure why people are still buying a program that’s several years old. You’re better off using your money to get Any2ISO, WinISO or PowerISO. The program works fine, but it doesn’t support anything past Windows Vista.
Hopefully, one of the utilities above will help you perform your conversions in the cheapest manner possible. If you use a different program than the ones mentioned here, feel free to let us know in the comments. Enjoy!
