Access to already compiled DLL

[Michael Holder]

Can someone tell me if it is possible using any tools to decompile a DLL
without the source code, so some settings can be changed? I have a DLL,
which I would like to increase the stack size assigned to it, but I do not
have any source files for it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hmm, isn't the default thread stack size determined by the EXE file only?
Anyway, the stack size is stored in the PE (portable executable) optional
header and you don't need to decompile the DLL to change it. Try the free PE
Studio, for example.
