Archive: Restoring NSIS script from a compiled installer?


Restoring NSIS script from a compiled installer?
Hi everybody,
surely this question was asked several times but I wasn't able to find a proper solution in the forums search.

To prove my astonishing intelligence I deleted accidentally an NSIS script which had some important and tricky parts in it which are difficult to restore.
Now I'm hoping that there is a concrete way to reveal the original script from the compiled installer which still exists but has to be modified further. So - if anybody should know if there is a way to rescue the script - please tell me.


It's almost impossible to decompile an NSIS script, there are also no decompilers available.

So I'm afraid you'll have to write it again.


Damn, thanks


Tried the recycle bin? :)

Nope. It's about 3-4 months and no less Windows installations ago...
