PE Explorer is the most feature-packed tool for inspecting the inner workings of PE files (EXE, DLL, ActiveX controls, and several other Windows executable formats). It offers a thorough look at PE file structure and all of the resources in the file, and tells you just about every little detail you could possibly want to know about a PE file.

PE Explorer comes with a Visual Resource Editor, PE Header Viewer, UPX Unpacker, Exported/Imported API Function Viewer, API Function Syntax Lookup, Dependency Scanner, and powerful Disassembler. The product allows you to peek inside Delphi applications and edit the properties of controls on Delphi forms within the PE file. Once inside, file structure can be analyzed and optimized, problems diagnosed, changes made and resources repaired.

Whether you are an advanced computer user just wondered what makes an executable file tick, or software developer suffered from hard-to-find program bugs, PE Explorer is the software solution that will make it easy to find the answers. With PE Explorer you can view, edit and repair the internal structures of PE files with the click of a button.

It works with PE formats such as EXE, DLL, MSSTYLES, SYS, OCX, SCR and other win32 executables. Support for custom plug-ins. Use it for serious development projects, for restoring lost information, for keeping damaged files intact, for determination of the existence of viruses or malicious code in the programs, to reverse engineer projects with missing source code, to view the imports/exports of the standard dll's, or to simply reduce the numerous internal information sources of PE files into a more convenient viewing format and save your valuable time. The possibilities are up to you. PE Explorer gives you an easy to use point and click approach from which to operate.

This program is intended for software companies, programmers and web developers. Other users can still use many of its powerful tools. In addition to hexadecimal editing, The program supports enhanced regular expression scripts to perform operations (such as sophisticated search, replace, color, etc.) on files. These operations can be highlighted with different colors so that you can preview the modifications with the possibility of "unlimited" undo/redo steps. Regular expression scripts can be generated and edited by "REX Wizard" or as a sequence of statements with auto syntax coloring (or both). The system provide a debug mode for REX scripts with syntax errors and warnings

Another incredible tool, the "Strut Wizard", helps the user define simple and compound structures. When a structure is applied to files, it displays views describing the inner structure of each file with optional display parameters. This tool can be used to display files with specific formats highlighting non-conforming data, if any, or for analyzing files with unknown formats.

You can use palette colors in marking specific locations for temporary book-marking, for analysis of structured data, for debugging or for training purposes. It also has a unique built-in feature, "History Wizard", that allows you to restart the history of changes of documents and color marking during a session and replay the changes with different speeds, stopping and restarting animation. This feature is also integrated with REX so that you can undo a script and review the steps. This feature can be extended to next sessions, i.e. you can "Do" or "Undo" what was edited in previous sessions

You can make block "Search and Replace" or regular expressions script processing over thousands of files or find file duplicates on local or network drives and arrange the result in optional ways and make special refinements by removing or deleting some files.

Other tools include:

• Interactive cleaning of duplicate file.
• Multiple file renaming, copying and moving
• Search and display status of links and internet shortcuts
• Back up/restore tool that can be used before applying scripts or other operations on multiple files
• A complete set of tools for comparison of folder trees, folders or files
