Hi guys, just have a question about using TAB key on keyboard in different text editing tools. So when I write some text anywhere I'm using the TAB key sometimes also when coding as well so make all pretty clean and clear. So the problem is when I do some copy / paste operation into some other text editor / textbox etc then its messed up and that's really bad and I have to fix that manually by entering single spaces or so. Now I would like to know whether there is any method to format my text with TAB's to make it look nice and clean and same like in the text editor where I wrote that text before? Do you have some idea's maybe? greetz

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum. I just registered, but I've been reading and practicing some basic things for a while now. I used to dedicate my free time to programming, working with Trojans, packers, and some general reverse engineering—always basic stuff, just for myself. Nowadays, due to work-related reasons, learning all these things has been very helpful, but some of them are beyond my reach. My name is Matias, and I'm from Argentina. I decided to register on the forum because I need to unpack a file protected with Enigma (a keygen) from software I bought for work. The seller wasn't very helpful, and I had to pay someone else to give me the program installer. Thi…

hi everyone , i was searching about the possibility of LLMS that soon as possible they can train in odd features , data that can analyse and and discover the 0 days exploitations, , many context has been showed up like wormgpt ,....... so do you think that maybe come true ? i mean beyond just use reverse eng to crack games ...........

Hi guy's short while ago I found some strange issue for some websites. Normally I use the middle mouse key to open any link in new tab to keep the main site open where I am right now. Now the strange part is this, if I try it then it happens that I get redirected to main page and not on the linked page of same website. If I try again with left mouse press it opens the LINK page in same tab = works. What a BS! So what is that for a FCK? Why are some websites forcing us just using the same tab to browse around on their site? Totally stupid. Is there a way to get a rid of that and make it work normally again? Even, same problem happens too but little differently. It also doe…

Hi guys, I found a new problem trying to access some reg keys and getting an error about opening those keys with the info denied. Then I tried using the psexec tools to run regedit with in system account but I still get the same error and can not open the keys etc. psexec -i -d -s c:\windows\regedit.exe Why? My questions is what can I do to get access of specific keys back if even psexec isn't working? Where can I change set permissions? Why are there locked keys at all in registry? Maybe you can help with some advice. Thanks. PS: Do you know some reg scanning tools to fix that back automatically etc? I tried using sfc /scannow but does not show any error. greetz

Hi guy, so yesterday I got some strange problem I never got before. I was on PC and everything was normal and then I started a movie with VLC player and I did press on seek bar to skip the intro and right after this everything was freeze! It looks like you would press pause on what happens on monitor screen. Even the VLC player was still playing (I could hear the audio of video only) but I could do nothing. Only thing what was working is the mouse pointer I could move anywhere on screen. Even the keyboard didn't help (was working / lights on / off etc) pressing Windows key or ESC etc nothing did pop up on screen. That was super strange. So why can I move the mouse po…

Hi everyone, As a newcomer to reverse engineering, there are so many tools and programs that can be downloaded - many of them being easily accessible, some of them being more niche. Either way, they are spread out far and wide - which is understandable. However, is there a mass repository of tools out there that are maintained (or at least archived) in one central location? I ask because, whether or not it exists - I am a proponent of self-hosting and local backups for preservation. I want to backup whatever tools are deemed essential (I’ll learn, in time…), or even those which are just obscure or niche. I want to keep everything I can locally (with all the responsibiliti…

If I want to reverse such a group, can you contact me? Inbox please.

hi, i'm not that bad at reverse engineering, my assembly language's comprehension is pretty good, C++ too and i wanna start other things like cracking, but i don't know how to unpack, manually or not etc etc. So if anyone can help me that would be great (sorry if i made any orthograph fault, i'm don't speak english every day so be cool please 😭)

I know it's always been this way, but I've never liked how security researchers and reverse engineers insist that certain bugs and certain protectors cannot be attacked using static analysis. I first noticed this attitude in the RE community, and later with certain types of heap and stack bugs—even in C. I was reminded of this mindset recently when people were analyzing Denuvo. As far as I can tell, the claim only really holds for things like decompression, decryption, or mutation tracking. It definitely doesn't apply to something like an unused (dangling) pointer or TOCTOU bug in C code. In the security research world, it's actually taught that only about 30% of exploita…

Hi guy's, since a while I'm always getting this error or others trying to play embedded YT video's like from RSS (FeedBro) extension or directly via embedded URL. Mostly it happens every second day and it sucks of course. I was trying to find out what the problem is and found out it has anything do to with the cookies / cache for the website. So when I get this error 153 what does not allow me to watch that video embedded and I have to click to get redirected to video page, I can start a new container tab (Firefox extension - which runs separated from all other cookie / cache) load the embedded website into and it runs as it should be and I can watch the video right away …

Special thanks to you @CodeExplorer Thank you for sharing so many powerful tools with us.

Hi. Looking for strong name (signed) 64 bits assembly! If possible will be great if the assembly is a dll which has assembly references. I just need to test my strong name tool.

Hi guys, today I found a new strange issue trying to access some websites with my actually gotten IP for today. I try to access few normal websites like github and see the performance is somehow pretty slow to load the website. Its still working to use and surf on it but slow. In other case I was trying to access xyplorer.com website and it fails and runs into an timeout. Also curl failed with.. curl: (28) Failed to connect to www.xyplorer.com port 443 after 21182 ms: Could not connect to server ...and the question is WHY? Normally I'm using Cloudflare as DNS resolver on system & browser. I tried using couple other ones like quad in browser but they also failed to loa…

Thanks in advance. Regards. sean.

Hi guys, I would like to know how I can print specific found results into specific view in CLI window itself. So I found that Findstr CLI tool from Windows you can use to search for specific strings or RegEx in files or just using it as pipe to check the CLI window content and to reprint found results. Nice tool so far but there is a problem. Findstr does just print entire lines only what is bad if you want to find words in a super long line so then entire long line gets printed and its hard to find the result in this long line you know. Now I'm looking for a method to find specific words and cut them after so that only the results get printed without the entire line…

Hey guy's, short question. Normally I'm using VPN sometimes to bypass some GEO blocks etc and need to use some simple VPN browser AddOn & Extension. I did notice that some of those free VPN tools aren't working anymore or at all and right now the VPN called 'Hotspot Shield' seems to work 0,0 to connect to anything (seems to be dead) but its sill active on Chrome store (not in Mozilla store / kicked out). Even trying to use other extensions isn't very comfy to connect & wait etc. So are there any other methods we could use which are working faster? greetz

Hi guy, short ago I did notice that some RSS feeds I do follow aren't working anymore to get some successfully response back when requesting them. I found out that the problem is the used HTTP request version. Seems that rss feeds switch to HTTP/2 as minimum and reject lower versions what is a problem, I'm still using an older RSS Feed tool called QuiteRSS (2020 last update) and its not working anymore for some feeds because of that new problem. So unfortunately I still didn't found any good alternative RSS feed reader tools (desktop) only RSS Guard but this is pretty slow and has much issues etc. So the good news is that I found by random that the Vivaldi brows…

Hi guy, just trying to test some TTS (Text to Speech) tools I can find on Github or checking on huggingface. I was testing some directly installed in ComfyUI (so far they did work more or less) and some I did installed manually / git. The latest I tried was called Zonos which just works partially in CUI just with transformer model and hybrid model failed and at all I got tons of errors but it did work to create some audio. So the result of that was not really good and it was more disappointing even to use a custom voice. The emotions node you can connect did nothing at all to hear any changes even if you increase some emotion to the highest value. ☹️ Then I installed the …

I had an old account here as "SoCal" but lost the email so, this is me. I haven't shared anything in around a decade so was wondering if something like a lic system emulator/fake would be ok. Project and source code only. Cheers
