Description:
------------
PE Explorer is the troubleshooting tool for 32 bit Windows executable files. 
With PE Explorer you can view, edit and repair the internal structures of PE 
files with the click of a button. 

A PE file ("portable executable") is the native format of executable binaries 
(DLLs, drivers and programs) for the Microsoft Windows® 9x/ME/NT/2000 32-bit 
operating systems. PE Explorer can handle a variety of different PE file types: 
EXE, DLL, DRV, CPL, SYS, OCX, BPL, DPL, SCR and more.

PE Explorer makes it easy to analyze source code, correct checksums, repair 
damaged resources or modify the internal arrangements of PE files. With PE 
Explorer file headers, data directories, section headers and import/export 
tables are ready and waiting for your command.

The latest addition to PE Explorer is Quick Function Syntax Lookup. Now, when 
reviewing functions with the Imports, Exports and Delay Imports viewers, 
clicking a function entry instantly displays the calling syntax for that 
function. Parameters, return values, calling conventions are conveniently 
displayed for you in the window below. Double clicking an entry launches a 
description editor for adding comments or changing details. Say good bye to 
digging through bloated help files and slogging through multiple archive 
volumes just to hash out an API reference.

Dependency Scanner tool recursively scans all modules linked to by a 
particular PE file.

PE Explorer offers one of the most convenient and easy-to-use resource 
editors available for Windows. Visual editing features let you quickly 
modify executable file resources from within the file without having to 
write any scripts. Dialog boxes, menus, string tables, icons, bitmaps 
and more are right at your fingertips. 

Use it for serious development projects, for restoring lost information, 
for keeping damaged files intact, to reverse engineer projects with missing 
source code, or to simply reduce the numerous internal information sources 
of PE files into a more convenient viewing format. The possibilities are 
up to you.
