When I go to download a program, I can't download anything because my computer only lets me download Win32 files, instead of Binary files. Is there any way I can change it from Win32 to Binary?

Could you give an example of the files you are trying to download?

I told you in the description. My computer only lets me download 'Win32' files, but I want to be able to download 'Binary' files.

I mean Binaries like ITunes which is what I need but my computer doesn't let me use it.

Could be that itunes is not installing properly on your computer. Make sure you download the 32bit application. I am not questioning your intelligence....This link provides the easiest info, and I am not calling you a dummy...Okay?

It's not just ITunes...It's everything I try to download. (Except for like songs, pictures, and videos. It's mostly just softwares.)

Win 32 Is What They call your "Operating System" You Are Running "Windows" In A 32 bit configuration . - which is the most popular in the world . Binary is the original system of 0's and 1's . It actually still breaks down to binary code as it's base . Is it possible you are trying to download files that are designed for "Mac" computers , or For "Windows 64 Bit" ??
