I am trying to see form properties of a compiled application, such as ShowInTaskBar, MinimizeBox, MaximizeBox and so on. I would like to determine these settings in a VB program.

What I have tried:

I have done some searching on Bing and DuckDuckGo. I did come across "A Simple Windows Forms Properties Spy", but the source doesn't seem to build (Maybe because the post was made 13 years ago). Any help would be good.

Well... You can try to decompile your old exe to see the form properties. Check this out: VB Decompiler - Products - Visual Basic 6.0 decompiler and .NET disassembler[^]

Note: I've never use that programme.
