How to extract files from pgp file?

Is it possible to take an exe file made from visual basic 6 and extract the original files?

  • I am trying to take an executable made in visual basic 6 and go back to the original .vbp and .frm files, is this at any means possible?

  • Answer:

    yes and no Decompilers are not reliable enough to get the original source. They do save a lot of work, but not 100% perfect Try some of the tools on http://www.decompiler-vb.net/ If a program was compiled into the native code, restoring the source code from machine instructions is not possible.

The code is 'compiled,' so you need a 'decompiler' which would give you assembly code. To reverse engineer something from assembly would take just as long if you were to figure out something on your own from what I can gather. If you happened to have a VB6 compiled to 'P-Code' it may be possible, though that is unlikely. All I can suggest is SoftICE
