PECompact compresses Windows modules (EXE, DLL, SCR, etc..) substantially, while leaving them able to be run just as before. At runtime, compressed modules are rapidly decompressed in memory. Smaller (<50%) size usually means quicker load time. Compression also adds a layer of security to modules that resists tampering and reverse engineering. PECompact supports multiple compression formats, including LZMA, through the use of CODEC plug-ins.

PECompact is an advanced Windows executable file compressor. It works by compressing the executable or module and then performing decompression in memory at runtime. Not only does this save space and bandwidth, PECompact also adds a level of obsufcation to your binaries.

PECompact works by compressing the code, data, import directory, selected resources, and other portions of Windows portable executables. At runtime, the executable is rebuilt in memory with no noticeable delay; the executable is at no time extracted to disk. In fact, compressed executables can actually load quicker in some cases because there is less data to be retrieved from the disk or network, which is usually the largest bottleneck.
