How To Download Resource Hacker
Jeanmarie Morock
I recently re-installed practically everything: AutoIt v3.1.1 (Production), AutoIt v3.1.1.131 (Latest Beta) and SciTe4Au3 plus the update to bring the tools up to v3.1.1.131 support. I noticed that my customized CompileAU3.ini was copied/renamed to AutoIt3Wrapper.ini, and placed in the new directory. I spent a moment checking out the new compiler directives, so I could make sure my wrapper custom INI was up-to-date -- I like to have ALL the options listed as a quick reference, rather than opening the Directives.au3 every time. The aneurysm began when I consistently received a compile-time error stating my program would not have it's resources information updated.
My first thought was, "Rats, did I delete MASM32 when I was ``cleaning shop'' of old, rarely used programming resources?" But, I still have a complete MASM32 directory tree, including RC.EXE and RCDLL.DLL.
My next thought was along the lines of some obscure version conflict. So, I removed the path for RC.EXE from the AutoIt3Wrapper.ini -- I left the option, just made it equal nothing, like 5/8ths of the other options in there. I tried compiling my program again, this time relying on the included copy of RC.EXE. I was stumpted when I didn't see ANY change in the contents of my temporary files directory. I didn't see RC.EXE/RCDLL.DLL briefly flash through, like with previous versions of the front-end/wrapper. I didn't see any "temp.rc" file, either! Odly enough, the progress dialogue shown during compilation took the expected amount of time to "create resource file."
I pressed the power button until the computer shutdown. When I pressed the power on button, it booted and then instead of the login prompt, a resource hacker editor appeared. I tried closing it but it kept coming back. I restarted the computer again and again and the same thing kept happening. I even tried restarting in safe mode and last known good condition but nothing worked. What should I do?
Resource Hacker is a freeware utility to view, modify, rename, add, delete and extract resources in 32bit and 64bit Windows executables and resource files (*.res). It incorporates an internal resource script compiler and decompiler and works on all (Win95 - Win7) Windows operating systems.
Resource Hacker is a small but excellent tool to modify system files like DLL, EXE, CPL, etc. You can even change Windows look by editing various Windows files and replacing their resources using Resource Hacker.
Part 1 provides basic details like viewing or replacing existing resources in a file, etc. Part 2 covers some advance information for geeks, like adding new resources, using scripts, etc.
To change any String, Menu or Dialog box, Select the desired resource, e.g. String Table -> 4 -> 1033, make your changes and at last click on Compile Script button or press F5 key or click on Action -> Compile option.

The Exploit Database is a CVE compliant archive of public exploits and corresponding vulnerable software, developed for use by penetration testers and vulnerability researchers. Our aim is to serve the most comprehensive collection of exploits gathered through direct submissions, mailing lists, as well as other public sources, and present them in a freely-available and easy-to-navigate database. The Exploit Database is a repository for exploits and proof-of-concepts rather than advisories, making it a valuable resource for those who need actionable data right away.
A resource editor for 32bit and 64bit Windows applications. It's both a resource compiler and a decompiler - enabling viewing and editing of resources in executables (*.exe; *.dll; *.scr; etc) and compiled resource libraries (*.res, *.mui). Resource Hacker also provides many options for compiling and decompiling resources from the command-line.
First, we need to extract all pretty icons from the old VMWare DLL. You can do it using Resource Hacker by right-clicking the "Icon" and choosing "Save [Icon] resources...". You'll get an .RC file and lots of ICO files in a folder.
