O.K. - Weird question that hasent come up before...

Matt-



I just managed to do it on another file in only a few minutes... Stupidly
(or maybe it was late last night) but I had used the "find" feature to
locate the first letter of my name. Naturally it found hundreds of
instances that I had to weed through. Tonight, prepared to do the same, I
realized how stupid that was.... All one has to do to remove or change
their name with this hex editor is simply open up the file in Hxd, then
using the find feature, type the word "string". It'll drop you off at the
beginning of every instance of your name. It'll also drop you off at the
beginning of every file structure if you want to change them. Make your
changes, hit F3 to find the next instance until it can't find anymore. Made
the changes to a part file in about 3 minutes.

Daisy, we are not in competition here.

We are here to learn and help.

I do what I can to help, and others do the same for me & I am grateful.

Is it just me or is FlowerPot something that Jon or Clif would have in their
home?

Yes, a little more, and she will end at the same place.
My opinion only, of course.

 

Actually, there may be a danger if the length of the "string"
is altered ... or you miss pointers to/from it ....
