Resource Editing
Restorator is an award-winning (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/awards) utility for editing Windows resources (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator#windowsResources) in applications and their components; e.g. files with .exe, .dll, .res, .rc, and .dcr, extensions (see PE files and RES files in the manual (https://www.bome.com/bome/downloads/manuals/restorator_manual.pdf)).
Change, add, or remove resources such as text, images, icons, sounds, videos, version, dialogs and menus in almost all programs.
Restorator is used for translation/localization (https://www.bome.com/bome/downloads/manuals/restorator_tutorial_translatingMSPaint.pdf), customization (https://www.bome.com/bome/downloads/manuals/restorator_tutorial_replace_resource.pdf), design improvement (https://www.bome.com/bome/downloads/manuals/restorator_tutorial_exploring.pdf)and development (https://www.bome.com/bome/downloads/manuals/restorator_tutorial_changing_delphi.pdf).
This resource editor comes with an intuitive user-interface (http://www.bomeloft.com/products/restorator/screenshots), complete documentation (https://www.bome.com/bome/downloads/manuals/restorator_manual.pdf) with many examples (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/tutorials) and prompt user support in the discussion forums (https://www.bome.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=16) or via email (https://www.bome.com/contact).
Restorator is the first choice for translation and localization by Fortune 500 companies and thousands of individuals.
Feature List
With Restorator you can
Translate existing applications (localization)
Customize the look and feel of programs
Replace logos and icons (branding)
Enhance control over resource files in the software development process
Hack into the inner workings of applications on your computer
Detailed Feature List … (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/features)
Look at the tutorials (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/tutorials) to see how easy your task has become.
What are Resources?
Restorator modifies resources. Resources are application-dependant data that the respective programmer includes in his program. Inside the program file they are separated from the program itself and therefore may be changed. This is the technical condition to create custom applications.
In the file, resources are organized in a tree : The first level defines the resource type (Bitmap, Icon, etc.) and the second level defines the name of the resource (”MainIcon”, “SplashScreen”, etc.).
Windows provides some standard resource types whereas other resource types may be defined by the programmer and are displayed by Restorator in upper case (e.g. resource type “AVI” – see the search tutorial (https://www.bome.com/bome/downloads/manuals/restorator_tutorial_searching_resources.pdf)).
The .res file has been standardized, allowing you to save all resources in one file. Restorator includes full support for creating/editing/opening/saving res files.
It is possible for one resource to be stored multiple times for different languages. If this is the case, Restorator adds a level in the tree with the language. (For example, on my system the file “WinNTSystem32comctl32.dll” (NT/2000/XP) or “WindowsSystemcomctl32.dll” (95/98/ME) has Strings and Dialogs in different la
Features
Here is a selection of Restorator’s most important features.
[version history (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/whatsnew)] [supported file formats (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/technical-specification)]
View and edit resources
Browse through your resources and edit them either in Restorator itself, or using applications you can integrate into Restorator’s tool menu.[list of supported resource types (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/technical-specification)]
WYSIWYG dialog editing
You can edit dialogs with your mouse on the screen. Move the dialog elements, resize and re-label them with immediate results and full control. Essential feature for translating applications. [screenshot (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/06_dialog_editor.png)] [tutorial (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/tutorials)]
Add multilingual support to your applications
You can add several languages to a single application. Your application will automatically start with the correct language, i.e. the default Windows language. Multilingual support can be added by just using Restorator. You can not only translate applications, but also add languages! [screenshot (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/09_edit_locale.png)][tutorial (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/tutorials)]
Release automated modifications – ResPatcher *)
Using ResPatcher you can create a small executable file that will re-do your changes, enabling you to customize any application and share it with others. You can customize applications like Internet Explorer and AOL Instant Messenger and share the modifications with your friends. [screenshot (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/18_respatcher.png)][tutorial (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/tutorials)]
Grab resources in PE files from anywhere on your hard drive *)
Grab resources on your hard drive. This tool will find resources wherever they hide (for example, look for all cursors on your drive and save a lot of manual work). [screenshot (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/17_grab_resources.png)][tutorial (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/tutorials)]
Locating elements in resources
Are you looking for a specific resource in a program? No problem — the resource finder will do it! [screenshot (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/16_find_in_files.png)][tutorial (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/tutorials)]
Edit and update resource files that are in use
Restorator can cause files to be replaced at system boot time, allowing you to modify resources within files used by Windows. [screenshot (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/19_forcefile.png)]
Link resource editing tools
Define your own tools to edit sounds, images, and other resources. Easily launch your favorite image editor to edit a BMP image.
Resource View Modes
View resources in different modes. In the Default Mode (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/05_view_default.png) you can listen to audio, look at images and find all resources that need translation. In Hexdump Mode (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/07_view_hex.png) you get access to the raw data. In the RC Resource Mode (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/08_view_rc.png) you see the resource entry in standard RC format.
Adding resources
Insert resources in .exe or .res files. Added resources are particularly useful for your created .res or .dcr files, or if you want to add custom resources to your own projects. This feature also allows you to add formats/resolutions to icons and cursors. [screenshot (https://www.bome.com/wp-content/gallery/products_restorator_screenshots/13_add_resource.png)]
Deleting resources
Does your compiler creates useless resources? Want to strip debug information from the resources? Want to shrink the size of the executable file? Now you can: remove resources with Restorator!
UPX support
Open upx-compressed files seamlessly in Restorator: upon loading, the file is automatically uncompressed.
Command line support
With the command line parameters, you can execute Restorator conveniently from a batch program, for automated execution. It is also possible to incorporate Restorator or a ResPatch into installation programs (like InstallShield) to automate resource patching during installation. [see the parameter list in the manual (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/manual)]
Extract all resources
You can extract all resources of an application. [tutorial (https://www.bome.com/products/restorator/support/tutorials)]
