EXE source Code

[Nipuna]

I think this is a Silly Question.

Is there any way that we can find the source code of compiled non open source EXE files? That are in our computer or downloaded files from the Internet.

Thanks

Not easily possible. However you can get the disassembly of the code and if you good with assembly, you may be able to read it. See this article about EXE file format https://robot.lk/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=1068

PE Explorer is a very good software to View, Edit, and Reverse Engineer EXE and DLL Files.

Ok i understand

So people can find the source code why don't they upload the source codes of Commercial software to the internet?

Software companies are investing (sometimes in millions) to create software for developers, machines, electricity, building, other staff, etc... This is where a cost is added to a software product. If someone publish a commercial code without rights, he can be sued and probably send to jail.

When you know the functionality, how about you try to create the same software
