Which is the best EXE/PE editor?
 

Hi,

Which is the best EXE/PE editor for adding sections and modifying it?

CFF Explorer (in my opinion).

yes true, CFF Explorer!:D

Note that CFF Explorer is free yet has not been updated in a long time though it hardly needs it given only modest changes to PE so its still a great utility:
Download the Explorer Suite
Current Version: III (18/11/2012)
Of course PE Explorer is also worth a try (free trial only though):
Or maybe even Professional PE file Explorer (PPEE) since its free
If you are just after editing the resources of the PE file of course there are better specific tools for that purpose than any of these. A separate discussion though...

I love PE-bear, but its a matter of tastes.

+1 for PE-bear, nice tool

Try Hiew. It can edit sections (all fields), can recalc CRC and also you can view and edit sections contents, including import, export, code, etc. The only problem is adding new section, it is less trivial, but possible in hiew also :)

LordPE, but only support 32bit.

Yes I agree. Call me "old fashion" but LordPE is still my favorite =>

+1 for LordPE... (even it only supports only 32b, I mainly work in 32bit architecture)

I'm comfortable with LordPE

Hiew - best asm code editor. LordPE best file structure editor.

LordPE is the best for me.

CFF Explorer contains enhanced PE32/64 with fields description, utilities, a hex editor, and support NET structures.

QuickView, thought it does not support adding sections, yet you can do it manually.

+1 / CFF Explorer
or PE explorer

both

010 Editor is also a good choice.

I was a big CFF explorer fan, for me there wasn't anything comparable at the time. Most of the time I still default to using but I'm turning around to being a fan of PE Bear. Old habits die hard.

+1 for PE-bear and MiTeC Exe Explorer for Delphi/C++Builder PE.

PE-bear is a good tool, but the resource editing function is relatively poor. Is there a better 64-bit pe resource editing tool?

Never knew about "MiTeC Exe Explorer for Delphi/C++Builder PE". That's great. I look at some Delphi samples and always wished I had more tools for analysing them.

PPEE (puppy) is a lightweight tool which supports both PE32 and PE64.
