pyinstxtractor-ng is a tool to extract the contents of a Pyinstaller generated executable file. Both Linux ELFs and Windows PE executables are supported.
This project is a fork of pyinstxtractor.
pyinstxtractor-ng uses the xdis library to unmarshal Python bytecode and as a result there is NO requirement to use the same Python version which was used to build the executable.
pyinstxtractor-ng also supports automatic decryption of encrypted pyinstaller executables.
Precompiled binaries for Linux and Windows are provided in releases. These are generated using PyInstaller itself, so you don't even need a Python installation to run pyinstxtractor-ng
PyInstaller Extractor NG
positional arguments:
filename Path to the file to extract
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-d, --one-dir One directory mode, extracts the pyz to the same directory
Pass the exe filename as an argument or drag & drop the pyinstaller exe file over pyinstxtractor.ng icon on Windows.
$ ./pyinstxtractor-ng <filename>
X:\> pyinstxtractor-ng <filename>
The --one-dir mode extracts the pyz in the same directory as the executable. This is useful if you want to run the extracted files straight-away.
X:\> pyinstxtractor-ng --one-dir main.exe
X:\> cd main.exe_extracted
X:\main.exe_extracted\> python main.py
