Posted January 23, 200817 yr hi i playing with updateresource my source works goodi open the target exe in the hexeditor have it at the end of this file this signs PADDINGXXPAD.....What is itgreetsragdog
January 23, 200817 yr PADDINGXXPAD.....Yes, I also thought WTF some weeks ago, while playing with UpdateResource.But nevermind.. it's just another strange M$ thingy, and afaik will only come up when using UpdateResource. Well, as the string says itself.. it's used for section alignment - in order not to get odd sizes by updating resources. Simply forget it
January 23, 200817 yr Author thanks for you reply I can delete without the executable file gets errors?
January 24, 200817 yr just fill the PADDING bytes will 00. it is exactly what they say they are, padding, to preserve alignment. Resource Binder does the same thing when rebuilding resources... most annoying
