How to Convert a .BIN to an .ISO in Nero

Nero Burning ROM is a program that allows you to take any file or collection of files you have on your computer and burn them to media discs. Nero Burning ROM is also unique in that it can work with disc image files. A .BIN file is just one of the types of these disc archive files. Another type is the .ISO. Nero Burning ROM can easily convert one format to the other.

Instructions

1. Launch Nero Burning ROM. An icon for Nero Burning ROM is located in the "Nero" folder, which you can access by clicking on "Start" and then "Programs" (or "All Programs" if you're a Windows Vista or Windows 7 user).

2. Click "Cancel" to exit the "New Project" wizard.

3. Click on the "Burner" drop-down menu in the main Nero Burning ROM program window and select "Image Recorder" from the list of compatible devices.

4. Click "File" and then "Open." Use the new "Open" dialog box that has opened over top of the Nero Burning ROM program window to find the .BIN archive file on your computer and select it.

5. Click on the "Burn" button. This will bring up a window asking you to save your about-to-be-created file to a location on your hard drive. Choose a location and name your file. Select the "ISO Image Files" option from the "Save as Type" drop down menu and click "Save." Nero Burning ROM will now take your .BIN file and save it as a .ISO file on your computer's hard drive.
