Hello,

My computer has been stolen with all my source code. I only have the executable file folders that I generated with auto-py-to-exe.

I don't have much hope, but is it possible to reverse engineer and convert the source code?

Thanks in advance!

Take a look at #311 - it's a year old but still relevant,

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.
