Undo an exe file

Locked

Is it possible to uncompile an exe file that was done in visual basic 6?
Why? I created a file… then sent it to someone else to “clean up” he said. I did all the work. He compiled it into an exe file and thats all I got back. No code. I need my code back… and yes, stupidly I didn’t save a backup

While it is technically possible to disassemble a Win32 .EXE file, that is what you will get – assembler source code, not VB code. It’s a LOT of work AND you have to know what you’re doing.
