Hi, Can you let me know how to do that. I try inserting using hex editior but getting error
ImportError: Ill-formed bytecode file d:\Personal\Python\python-exe-unpacker-master\unpacked\main.exe\Main.pyc
<class 'ValueError'>; read length must be non-negative or -1

@kannansowayan What did you try? I dont have the code I used, but I used python for this, something simple.

with open('main','rb') as file:

and so on. Its not anything much complicated, though create a backup and also change from main.pyc to main to open with python.

Thanks for the response. I am using uncompyle6 to decompile the file (extracted as part of single .exe file). I had extracted it only as main, but when i try to decompile it gave error, so i added extension .pyc manually. Also based on suggestions in various forums, i tried inserting bytes but still getting one error or other.

I see you are reading the file simple, post that how do you decompile do you use dis or any other library to move from bytecode to actual source?

I used uncompyle6. And then proceeded.

Got the same issue when I tried to decrypt an encrypted file.
