Champion!

Look forward to it.

BTW: Have been using epCheck for some time now.

Exactly, it's not fun converting each byte in binary to ASCII. Notepad++ isn't the answer. Need a new tool.

Easy, Malware analysis.

I need something like this quite often, this should also explain the need to be offline at times.

That's step one, now do binary to ASCII...

Yes, npp has plugins to do it (TextFX being the main one I've used). I've just played with it again to see if anything has changed and it is still messy, does not work properly nor provide multiple direction conversion.

In npp, converting the following is not fun.

30 31 30 30 31 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 31 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 31 31 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 31 31 20 30 31 31 30 30 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 31 31 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 30 30 31 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 30 20 30 31 31 31 31 30 30 31 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 31 30 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 31 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 31 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 31 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 30 31 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 30 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 31 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 31 30 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 31 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 31 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 30 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 30 31 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 30 31 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 30 30 31 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 30 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 31 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 31 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 30 30 31 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 30 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 31 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 31 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 30 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 31 31 31 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 30 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 30 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 30 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 30 31 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 31 30 20 30 31 31 30 30 31 30 31 20 30 31 31 30 30 30 31 31 20 30 31 31 31 30 31 30 30 20 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 31

A simple utility just to handle conversion would be welcome and as far as I can see, does not exist.

Functionality like ASCII to Hex ...and other free text conversion tools would be nice.

Coding Snacks / Re: Update of NirSoft's ZipInstaller

I'm curious why the utility has not been kept up to date.  It seems like a cool idea.  I wonder if 64 bit stuff coming on has complicated things, along with the Programs and Features etc..

Glad you agree. :Thmbsup: Really hope this gets off the ground.
Scott Hanselman still recommends ZipInstaller, would be great if there was an updated version to take over and do things right.
Scott Hanselman's 2014 Ultimate Developer and Power Users Tool List for Windows

I don't see 64-bit being a problem (unless it's something other than detection you're discussing) ZipInstaller has had no issue with them (Regshot or RBTray for example). Info on whether it's 32 or 64-bit is in the File Header, Machine=014C (32-bit) or Machine=8664 (64-bit) and can be detected with 'file' or 'dumpbin'.

If there are multiple executables then the user can be prompted to choose which. Solves issue if there are both 32 and 64-bit exes in the zip (again, Regshot or RBTray for example).

Also I can't see Programmes and Features being a problem if the user can edit the detected information (or lack thereof - FastStone Capture v5.3 for example) as this would eliminate all the problems it currently has.
