  1. Hello, I have a website project thathas beenprecompiled already, how can I recompile the website project to its original state so I can make modifications in the source code, thanks!
     
  2. Thanks for the reply, I have used the link you have givn me and still do not know how to go about it but the problem I am facing is that I am an absolute novice in this area. I have lost the original source code and the only thing I have left is the precompiled website project.

    I do not know how to recompile the website project back to its original source code, can you help lead my step by step? I am only a novice, please do find time and help, thank you.
     
  3. Hi,
    I understand but that's bad news...
    I'm not aware of a way to decompile other than looking under the code with Reflector:

    Reflector is a free tool used even internally at Microsoft.
    It's the only tool I know of for this sort of thing.

    Oo.. decompiling is a rather complicated process. If you are not a very experience programmer, i really don't recommend this.


    I suggest you try get the source code from the original creator.
