Dell BIOS in EXE format #240

Closed vlerror closed 1 month ago

vlerror commented 1 month ago

Hello, I’ve tried everything to get the EXE format to a bin file and I have made it into a “Bin” file but using uefi tool nothing shows up. I need a way to get the correct image file from my bios (dell optiplex 5050)

When the file is executed, does it create any temporary files/folders locally or in standard temp places?

Well I'm not sure, what method of extraction would lead to the files being the the temp folder? I've used like 3 separate methods in doing such.

I would also like to give more context. When extracting the bin file from the EXE it seems as if it wasn't an actual bin file. In uefi tool I try searching all the different names for "4g decoding" and nothing shows up.

Which CPU generation? Please, provide a link to .exe file.
