I am trying to learn reverse engineering but i am struggling it's very hard so for pro how did you learn and how much it took you to do be pro

I saw a simulation page having a link ago that shows fetch decode and execute of a cpu in the forums. Can anyone let me know where it is? Regards. sean.

Hi all, Just wanted to ask how everyone's experiences have been using AI tools to automate reversing grunt work. What tools do you use and when and how do you use them? I've had some success with GhidrAssistMCP and GhidrAssist but especially MCP and providing a command line debugger. On real world target, I've had it rename functions and track down complex patches where it would backtrace or forward trace by running gdb and setting breakpoint in coordination with the decompilation MCP tools available, and even generating Python scripts to patch and unpatch a library if patches some even involving making code caves at the end of the .text segment by extending its size i…

I’ve been doing reverse engineering for about 5 or 6 months now; I’ve worked on qaite a few crackmes, real software, and a bit of everything—including a good deal of Windows internals—and I’m comfortable with C, assembly, and so on. However, I’ve reached a point where I’m truly lost for the first time: starting with "unpackmes." I don’t understand them or the logic behind them. My goal is to eventually understand robust protections like Themida or VMProtect, but I’m not sure what to do right now. I’ve considered solving unpackmes with the help of AI to progress gradually, but I feel bad doing that. If an expert could help me, it would make a world of difference for me and…

Hi guys, need some help to find out how I can do that operation. I tried using WinMerge but don't get it work somehow for that compare operation. The task is pretty simple Example: Folder_1 & Folder_2. In both are files even with same file names like "config file 01.txt" and so on. I want to find a method to compare both folders with each other looking for exact same file names in both folders and only compare those files about the file size changes. Below the first results of found files with same file name & file size changes of both folders. config file 01.txt 10 KB - config file 01.txt 11 KB config file 02.txt 22 KB - config file 02.txt 33 KB config file 03.tx…

Hello, If you remain up to date with the current methods being used against top protection schemes, you may have recently observed a crack due to the MKDEV team utilizing hypervisor technology. AFAIK, this technique has until now not been used in a public release, and does seem rather elegant. I would argue that this approach has effectively nuked all protections created by Denuvo over the years in response to previous cracking approaches (i.e. random paths, various integrity checks, byte scattering, encrypted checks, etc). This leaves me wondering, what is actually stopping one from: (1) Spinning up a virtual machine, (2) Purchasing a Denuvo title and generating a val…

Hey guys, new shit happens right now. I did update Brave today and after that 9 extensions was disabled and I can't enable them back to access them? Some of them having specific settings and inputs like my FeedBro extension with lots of RSS feeds inside I can't access right now anymore. What a BS! Maybe anyone has a clue how to bypass that garbage. Must be again those Manifest version thing. Before updaing they should WARN the users about it that extnesion just gets disabled after and not just doing that shit. They are real idiots! 😡 greetz

Oh, we didn't have internet for nearly 100 days in Iran🤣 At any moment, the war could break out again and the internet could be cut off

I've been watching the bricks and minifigs scandal over the last few days, absolutely insane stuff. Kinda seen one or two things show up in my youtube feed, but didnt watch them then, then starting seeing bigger content creators react/watch the RecklessBen youtube videos and found it to be utterly compelling. It is so much more than just a stolen Lego collection. It's like a documentary on shady corporate business practices, police corruption and more. I tracked down the thief who stole $200,000 of LEGO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wscQpkcwgNU I got arrested because of legos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxZPfj8AlmY My response to the Police: https://www.youtu…

Hi guys, today I have some specific question and this time I'm searching for a song I can't find on internet and even AI can't find it for me. So what is it you may ask, right. Its a song which was played in the TV-Show Baywatch '93 and the episode called 'Ironman Buchannon' S04-E09. You can find details about it on imdb but the song info's there and on other info sites does not match correctly. In this episode was two songs used. The first song is correct 'Beloved - Dream On' but the second one is wrong called 'The Weathermen - You Want it All'. I found those both songs on YT and did wonder why the second one is not the same song used in the episode I watched. After som…

Text File Joiner: I have to ask you something. Which interface you like more?, the original interface or the interface created by https://chatgpt.com/. I could try to re-do the original interface if you think the new interface is too ugly. Any suggestion for this little project is welcomed. Original interface: New interface by ChatGpt: Text File Joiner (2 gui versions).rar

I check the crackmes on virus total and see lots of red flags so anyone knows why?

Hi guys, so I have a new problem I need to find a solution for. Few day's ago I tried testing the ComfyUI portable tool what can install repos from Github etc. Some of them was working using the in build installing option and some others not. Even to uninstall of some tools ComfyUI did install is not working too and the repo folders are still in custom_nodes folder. So, the main problem I have now got twice already is that sometimes (2 times so far) ComfyUI does freeze somehow and I can reload the local-host page anymore (nothing comes) and even using CTRL+C in terminal does nothing. It just hangs. A look into task manager shows me the python process is still running whic…

Hi guy's, so I got two questions about YT. First problem is if I'm looking for something using my mother language I'm getting also results of other countries languages. Now I would like to filter by used language in the video itself to find just video's with the language I'm looking for like German and not English or etc you know. There is a location filter in YT but this isn't showing any results anymore. I think YT should spend some time to create a function for this to make a better filter for their video / content results. No idea why they didn't done it yet. Next question is how to filter OUT those annoying SHORT video results? I hate them so much! So at al…

A guy named voices38 cracked Resident evil requiem solo which has 2026 denuvo Voices38 post on reddit re 9 Whereas scene groups are releasing just standard lame steam protections PreDB scene release database Is there no one in scene who can patch denuvo or can challenge denuvo, or scene being lazy or run by newbies or experienced guys already left. Lately Denuvo is having hard time at their headquarters after hypervisors 0days being released, well proper old school released by voices38 is certainly topic of the town.

Hi guy's, short question. In the past someone told me how to enable some exception log on Windows to protocol the data of exception of any app when it happens etc. I can't find that topic anymore here on forum so I have to ask again. Does someone know it how this was? Problem: I have a app what runs into some exception (random) when its finished to run (CLI tool) and when this exception occurs then Windows hangs for a while so the mouse just showing a circle and I have to wait few seconds. I think Windows does create a log somewhere on system about that exception (don't remember where) and I would like to disable that process to skip logging exception n stuff. So where in…

I have a Notepad (.txt) file that belongs to a machine. How can I extract the decoder key from it? There is a tool for this file—when the file is loaded into that tool, it removes the remaining machine format and generates the key. If anyone knows how this works, please guide me. DH-PARAM.TXT

Hi guys, so I found a new / older problem I want to fix and need some help to find the reason. So in some cases when I select a file or press right mouse to get the context menu it will take a long time and it also depends on the filesize & file itself. So in my problem case I found out that this problem happens for some video files having an specific audio format which is PCM... pcm_s24le pcm_s16be ...but I don't know why. Windows can play it but somehow it always hangs when I select any video (MP4 / MOV) or wanna get the right mouse context to see. Even if the file is larger it takes more time. That's really horrible. So must be that audio format. When I separate bo…

that poses as CD-ROM... Is it any better than the usual?
