## What it is
Xenos is a Windows DLL injector built on the Blackbone library, supporting x86/x64 processes, manual image mapping, managed image injection, and optional kernel-mode injection. It offers advanced features like thread hijacking, module unlinking, and injection profiles.

## Use cases
- inject a dll into a running windows process
- manually map an image into a remote process
- inject a managed .NET assembly without a proxy dll
- inject into a wow64 process from x64
- hide an injected module from module enumeration
- test anti-cheat or security software against injection techniques

## When to choose
- you need a feature-rich GUI injector supporting x86, x64, and WOW64 targets
- you want manual mapping with import/TLS/relocation handling
- you need kernel-mode injection or driver manual mapping with a driver

## When to avoid
- you need a supported, actively maintained tool - the last release was 2021 and it targets Win7-Win10
- you need cross-platform injection on Linux or macOS
- you want a simple command-line injector rather than a GUI application

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: maintenance
- function: security, reverse-engineering
- domain: security, reverse-engineering, windows
- platform: windows, cpp
- tags: dll-injection, blackbone, manual-mapping, kernel-driver, wow64
