Reko is a general-purpose binary decompiler that translates machine code executables back into high-level language source. It supports multiple processor architectures (x86, ARM, MIPS, etc.) and file formats, with both a command-line and Windows GUI front end.

Use cases

  • decompile an x86 binary back to C-like source
  • reverse engineer a legacy ARM executable
  • analyze malware binaries without source code
  • recover lost source code from compiled executables
  • disassemble and decompile firmware for embedded processors
  • audit a binary for security research

When to choose

  • you need a free, open-source decompiler for many CPU architectures
  • you want to decompile binaries with minimal manual intervention
  • you prefer a self-contained tool with both CLI and GUI front ends

When to avoid

  • you need the polished interactive analysis of commercial tools like IDA Pro or Ghidra's ecosystem
  • decompiling binaries you don't have legal rights to reverse engineer
  • you need a decompiler for architectures not on the supported-binaries list
