Is there a way that you can show any software,files etc. in bin only 0 and 1's saved as a .txt file or anything else?

I'm not sure I understand the question, so I'll answer all the possibilities i can think of 😉

1. you have a (binary) file, and want to see it as text. open it in notepad.
2. you have a file and want to see it as 1's and 0's. not sure what the point of that might be. Anyway.... I don't know of any existing software like that, but if you know any programming, it would be fairly simple to write.
3. you have a (binary?) file and want to see it in some way other that notepad/text. A hex editor is probably useful... you will see the file as numbers 0-9, and A-F in pairs (two hex digits per byte) go to download.com and search for "hex editor". download however many it takes for you to find one you like 🙂
4. you have a program and want to see the code... download.com probably has some x86 assembly disassemblers.

edit: if you do #1, you'll see lots of garbage...
