Converting a .DLL file back to Labview code

[f460juno]

Can Labview code that was converted into .DLL file be recovered/turned back in to a Labview program? I have some really old work that I cannot find the original source code and trying to recover it.

You should ask in the LabView forum, this is LabWindows... Normally the answer is a clear no, unless LV leaves some debug symbols within the DLL (I have no idea). Recently there's been some astounding feats of reverse-engineering  of compiled code back into source code using AI, including comments ! Maybe that'd work.

As already mentioned, you are in the wrong forum. But unless that DLL was compiled for debugging purposes with the LabVIEW diagrams left in the VIs inside the DLL, those diagrams are gone for good if you can't find the original source VIs.

And it is very likely that whoever did the DLL build did not go into the trouble of checking the Debug Build check box before hitting the Build button. But maybe, just maybe, it is your lucky day!
