Best UPX Frontend?

I'm looking for a quality frontend for UPX. I found many hits via Google but most of them are either outdated or very limited in options.

Any tips for me?

Never needed a GUI for it:
upx.exe upx -9 "Filename"
or
upx.exe upx -9 --compress-icons=0 "Filename"
if your executable has an icon...

More practical:

Safeguard under "compressing with upx.reg"

Code: Select all

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\Compresser Avec UPX]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\Compresser Avec UPX\command]
@="D:\\UtilsPath\\upx.exe -9 %1"

Safeguard under "decompressing with upx.reg"

Code: Select all

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\Decompresser Avec UPX]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\Decompresser Avec UPX\command]
@="D:\\UtilsPath\\upx.exe -d %1"
Adapt the way of the repertories…

Use Explorer to compress and decompress the file exe to select…

XPackGUI

Hi,

I'd coded a small AIO tool called XPackGUI in PB 3.94, also for a couple
of other exe-packer too. It's not the best one of cause, but it works...

  • 20to4
  • ANDpakk2
  • kkrunchy
  • MuCruncher2
  • Upack
  • UPX
Be aware, some lame AV-Tools alert kkrunchy and Upack
as a spam (false true)!

It's only an alternative to other tools?

If you want, download it on my site (Toolz): www.testaware.de.tp

Greets, Peace

Nice, Peace.
About your other works, i am interested in your OLDSKOOL DEMOMAKER but i have found that norton antivirus detects virus in various of the mod plugins. :roll:

Thanks Psychophanta :D

I know about the problem with trojan alerts in the package of the
OldSkool DemoMaker :(

But thats are false true alerts by some antivir tools, they detect packed
dll's and exe's by Upack & kkrunchy as trojans by default!

Think Kaspersky solved this problem but others (Norton...) don't accept
crunched ones, cause a couple of lame trojans are packed by kkrunchy too!

OSDM archive is really virus free :!:

Perhaps I'll try to recompile the plugin files and pack it with UPX only...
But must install PB3.94 again first (coded in), will do it when finished my
current tool :wink:
