Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/brentvollebregt/auto-py-to-exe/issues/311

Is there anyway to decompile the exe after it's created? I have created an exe a year ago and it works but I want to work on the project again and I have tried unpy2exe but it was still encrypted. Is there any tool I can use to get the source code?

auto-py-to-exe uses PyInstaller in the background - so you will want to search for a tool to decompile PyInstaller bundles.

I haven't done it myself but pyinstxtractor looks promising.

Just closing as this was a question - if the above didn't make sense, let me know.
