# DE Decompiler

> Official references for the professional decompiler for VCL applications written in Delphi 3–13, Win32 and Win64. Analysis and reverse engineering are the primary uses; recovered Delphi-like code requires manual review and correction. Verify current releases, prices and terms on the linked public pages. Core analysis is offline; optional remote AI requests transmit the submitted code to the selected provider. C++Builder VCL applications are also supported, including forms, units, classes and functions. Their code is reconstructed as Delphi-like Pascal with PAS/DFM export. C++Builder-specific library RTTI knowledge bases are not yet available, so code recovery quality is lower than for Delphi. The Delphi recovery estimate must not be applied to C++Builder.
