If you first identify what kind of a file you are dealing with, it should be that much easier. Hint: it’s not a text file, even if the name suggests it.

A little hint for every one. Try renaming the extension of the file “.txt” to something else. Or you can do a open with and open the text file with some other application.
If you use a text editor to open this file you will see at the start: BM6 - if you use a text editor to open a text file all you will see is the text it contains. So why only seeing BM6?? - If you open a jpg picture file with a text editor you will see close to the start of it: JFIF and if you open a GIF file using a text editor you will see GIF at the start. So think about what you see if you open the b1.txt file? Yes it is BM6 so what type of file extension should this be, as it is surely not a text file.

It’s all good, we’ve been in your position before, not knowing what the hell to do. You’ll get there.

Yeah, it is a clue.
I suggest you to read about filename extensions and file signatures.
These 2 articles are a good starting point:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filename_extension
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_signature
