Hi,

I am doing research project in Windows Forensic. I wanted to decompile one static lib written in C++, using Hex editor I have collected some information, but searching for a tool which will reduce my manual efforts. Can you please suggest any tool which helps me reverse engineer the static lib file.

Thanks in advance.

You could start here[^] for some suggestions, although decompiling binary objects is not guaranteed to work 100%. It's not clear what your goal is but you probably need to research the structure of library files and object binaries in order to make progress with your project.
