Decompiler V1.1.0.194 — Delphi
: Added the ability to save projects for Delphi 2007, 2009, and 2010. UI/UX Improvements
Quick forensic form recovery from old, simple, unpacked Delphi 5–2007 binaries. For anything else, look elsewhere. delphi decompiler v1.1.0.194
is a legacy tool with very limited practical use today. Its only reliable feature is DFM extraction. For actual decompilation to Pascal, it fails dramatically. : Added the ability to save projects for

: In some jurisdictions, decompilation is permitted for specific purposes like ensuring software interoperability or error correction when the original vendor is no longer available.
: Delphi applications often rely on DFM (Delphi Form) files. Decompilers are particularly good at extracting these layouts, which define the user interface.
Imagine a company that has a critical Delphi 5 inventory system running on an old Windows 2000 server. The original source code was lost on a failed hard drive. The compiled .exe still works. Using v1.1.0.194, a developer can recover form layouts and some business logic, then rewrite missing pieces. It is rarely a full recovery, but often enough to migrate to a modern platform.
