Solve : Command Line Arguments?

Answer»

Hi, I have a very specific need. I need to find out the [unknown] command line arguments/switches of an executable. The executable does not have the /? switch, so a simple solution such as that will not work. I know a few switches that it has, such as /win and /norender. I also have PE explorer if that helps any. So, does anyone have a way of finding the switches without "/?" ?there is no way, aside from the programs help files, to see how it manipulates and parses the command-line.

It's likely that the switches themselves are saved as plaintext somewhere- the trick is that they are unlikely to be stored as say, "/norender" or "/win" instead, TRY looking for "norender" or "win", and look for other, nearby words in the area where you find them.have you tried
--help
-help
-h
-?
/??
/help
/"help"
/h
/info
if that fails open it with a hex editor
