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 I found many hits via Google but most of them are either outdated or very limited in options.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…

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):

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
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
