    I was just hoping it was amenable to reason; I was wrong.

    HxD - Freeware Hex Editor and Disk Editor
    HxD is a carefully designed and fast hex editor which, additionally to raw >disk editing and modifying of main memory (RAM), handles files of any size. >The easy to use interface offers features such as searching and replacing, >exporting, checksums/digests, insertion of byte patterns, a file shredder, >concatenation or splitting of files, statistics and much more.
    Editing works like in a text editor with a focus on a simple and task- >oriented operation, as such functions were streamlined to hide differences >that are purely technical.
    For example, drives and memory are presented similar to a file and are
    shown as a whole, in contrast to a sector/region-limited view that cuts
    off data which potentially belongs together. Drives and memory can be
    edited the same way as a regular file including support for undo. In
    addition memory-sections define a foldable region and inaccessible
    sections are hidden by default.
    Furthermore a lot of effort was put into making operations fast and >efficient, instead of forcing you to use specialized functions for
    technical reasons or arbitrarily limiting file sizes. This includes a >responsive interface and progress indicators for lengthy operations.

    Notes
    Disk-Editor
    To use the disk editor under Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista/7 and
    higher you have to be an administrator or have the appropriate
    privileges.
    Starting with Vista you need to manually unmount the hard disk to >successfully write to it, or in other words: make sure the disk you
    edit has no mounted file system. More details in this forum thread.
    A system drive (the one where Windows is installed on) cannot be
    written to while Windows is running. In order to still accomplish
    that, you will have to execute HxD from a boot CD/DVD like PartBE
    or VistaPE and edit the system disk from there.
    Windows NT 4
    If the RAM-editor doesn't show any processes under Windows NT 4 you
    most likely don't have PSAPI.DLL installed on your system. You can
    get it from Microsoft (PSAPI.DLL Download) and copy the DLL into the >%windir%\System directory.
    HxD was only tested for Windows NT 4 SP 6, though it should work
    with versions prior to service pack 6.
    Windown NT 4 SP1 and newer are also supported, if WININET.DLL is
    added, through IE 3.02 or newer.

    Hex Editor and Disk Editor

    Well, if the legit version it is actually very good. But it hasn't been
    updated in oh, 8-10 years maybe? Was written by a German guy as a
    freeware. Its strong point was to open HUGE files, If memory serves me
    there was talk about exabytes in the readme.

    But posted to the groups, having a date more recent than maybe 2008,
    that's bullshit and probably ransomware.

    They are getting desperate trying to trick people into falling into
    putin's gnarly web. He needs the money, the fucking retard, to prolong the
    war.
