Does anybody knows if there is any win program available that has the asm decode/encode capabilities like hiew? I say again, windows program, not dos.

thanks.

rta. search the board for it

thanks. gonna search for it.

In IDA Pro you can patch the code directly, binary or with asm (if you have unhidden that menu alternative anyway). It will not patch the executable file directly though, but you can easily export a dif-file that can be easily used as input to a patcher.

In the most recent versions though (e.g. 4.50), I have noticed that all my exported dif-files come out empty, even if I have indeed patched the database, but this used to work perfectly before?!

Does anyone know what might cause this, or have at least noticed the same thing?

AFAIK, it is a bug in IDA. Use pe_write.idc to create new exe from modified IDA database.
