Hello,

some time ago I found a command line tool for verification of PE file. It worked similliar to PeVerify plugin for HIEW. Unfortunatelly, I deleted the file from my disk. Does any one have such tool ? A CFF Explorer script is not enough for me

Weeell, what requirements do you need, and why isn't CFF Explorer and/or script and/or any other PE editor not good enough? I was going to suggest 010 Editor and its EXE template, but I'm not sure if that suits your need either.

Hi,

my only req is that file could be executed on Windows (all versions including Vista) platform. CFF Explorer sometimes says that file is correct one, while in fact it isn't. A good tool is PEM plugin for HIEW - PE Verify, which gives a lot of detailed info about PE file. Another tool (the one I was missing) is peverify.exe by Void Dweller (attached).
Thx for the tip I'll give 010 a look.

uh.. very hard REQ.

look on "tiny.exe", just posted here. it is totally WRONG!
but XP executes.
on W98 crashes.

SO! only WORK-method of testing for you is:
1. Start Executable
2. If EntryPoint reached, (exclude imported DLL loading), then it is ?? what you want..
