C++ EXE Source Recovery
Budget: $10 – $30 AUD
I have a single Windows executable that was originally written in C++, but the working copy of the source code has been lost. The file is completely self-contained—no Boost, no custom DLLs, nothing to chase down—so the job is focused purely on reversing the compiled binary back into clean, human-readable C++.
Your objective is to produce well-structured code that can be rebuilt into an equivalent executable. I am comfortable with industry-standard reverse-engineering tools such as IDA Pro, Ghidra, Hopper, or RetDec, so feel free to choose the workflow you prefer, as long as the end result meets the criteria below.
Deliverables
• A C++ project that compiles on a recent MSVC or GCC/Clang toolchain and reproduces the original program’s behaviour
• Readable, logically named source and header files with inline comments explaining non-obvious logic or reconstructed data structures
• A short build/read-me outlining any compiler flags or environment settings required
I will test the code by compiling it on my machine and running a feature-by-feature comparison against the original EXE. Payment will be released once the rebuilt version matches the original in function and stability. If you have prior experience decompiling standalone Windows binaries and cleaning up the generated output, I look forward to working with you.
