Bin file open

[Anonymous]

I download my auto cad drawings to my android from my e-mail. But I hadn't installed auto cad app. So that files show as bin (.bin) files. There are installed auto cad on my pc. So I tried to open that bin files with so many bin files opening softwares. But that format doesn't support for those softwares. ( already I have deleted the e-mail also ) Please somebody suppose me some solution.

Did you try changing the file extension to .DWG, for opening on your PC?

Hi @Anonymous,

I see that you are visiting as a new member to the AutoCAD forum. Welcome to the Autodesk Community!

Are you having problems opening on Android? Here is a link to the DWG viewer on Google Play.  If you are trying to find a viewer for your PC here is a link for some additional options.

I am not sure why the files show up as BIN extensions. Typically files will show up in DWG or DWF file extension types.
