Hi guys, so I am looking for any solution to increase the volume during browsing on internet.Maybe you know it,you do watch any videos or streams and the sound is just too quiet and this sucks and to download the videos or pipe the streams into VLC player where you can increase the volume a lot isnt very comfortable.I also tried to find any AddOn or something but without success.Is there really no way to increase the volume?Maybe you know more and found any solution or method you could share. Thank you

I'm reading RE4B by D.Yurichev https://beginners.re/ I know some x86/x64 and it's easy to follow x86/x64 codes in the book, but there is ARM/ARM64 and MIPS also. I know nothing about ARM and MIPS. What would you advice me? learn some ARM/ARM64 and MIPS and after this continue reading the book or skip ARM/MIPS parts and only read x86/x64 parts. P.S. My goal is to be a good malware analyst.

Hello to all you forum members My question might seem a bit noobish, but I'm more or less new to RCE.

But, is it possible to change the source via editing the mnemonics, like in olly ord x64dbg? Or, are there any plugins which allow me to do that? I hope my english isn't that bad ^^ ty

I want to be a good reverse engineer and malware analyzer. I have some good books about RE and Malware Analysis. I made some progress step-by-step. I like this journey. I feel I need much more depth in computer architecture and operating systems, also in C. I know some C/C++/C#/Python at the intermediate level. I prefer books less theoretical. I know there are many great reverse engineers, I need your help.

I'm not sure if it widely known. I meet the problem and want to share it to warn everyone. Almost none of .NET tools (unpackers, deobfuscators) will not work on Windows 10. Why? I don't know. I had long fighting with .NET Reactor (4.8-4.9) packed assembly, tried all modifications of de4dot which I could find over internet, and also manual unpacking. Every de4dot give me Hmmmm... something didn't work without any trace. SAE Deobfuscator simply freeze at half of process. DeObfuscatorWin32 won't run at all. I don't know if it is OS dependent problem, or .NET version installed (I have 4.5-4.6.1 installed) but that it is, I fought with it until I simply tried it on W…
