    A decompiler won’t give you the source code. Just some code that might not even necessarily work when compiled back.

      From the point of view of the decompiler machine code is indeed the source code though

      And? Decompilers aren’t for noobs. So what if it gives you variable and function names like A000, A001, etc?

      It can still lead a seasoned programmer where to go in the raw machine code to mod some things.
