What is PeStudio?

PeStudio

PeStudio is a handy tool for anyone who wants to check out an executable file without actually opening it. You know how malware can sneak onto your computer? Well, executable files are one of the most common ways it spreads. Just a double-click can lead to an infection! That’s where PeStudio steps in to help you spot any suspicious changes in the file before you accidentally launch it.

Easy to Use Interface

No need to worry about complicated features here! PeStudio's interface is super simple. Even though there’s no help menu or instructions, you’ll figure things out right away. Just load the file you want to inspect, and you're good to go!

File Formats Supported

This application isn't picky when it comes to file types—it can analyze different formats like EXE, DLL, CPL, OCX, AX, SYS, and more. Plus, if you’re feeling lazy (who isn’t sometimes?), you can just drag and drop your file right into the main window to start the scan!

Diving Into Analysis

The analysis kicks off immediately once your file is loaded. PeStudio shows valuable info about the file's properties like hash codes, size, and even its compile and debugger stamps. All this helps you check if the file is legit.

Detailed Insights on File Indicators

PeStudio doesn’t stop there! It digs deeper by showing details about various indicators and signatures in the file. It can tell if a file contains other files or references them. You’ll get information on DOS headers, directories, sections, libraries—you name it! It also reveals resources like bound imports and exported symbols.

Saving Your Reports

If you're an experienced user looking for hard-coded URLs or IP addresses that might indicate tampering with the file, you're in luck! You can save your entire report as an XML file for future reference.

A Quick Inspection Tool

The main goal of PeStudio is to give you a quick way to inspect executable files without needing to run them first. Just remember—it’s not a replacement for antivirus software but rather a helpful tool for getting detailed insights into how an executable was built. Want to try it out? You can download it here!
