# x86rc/vmp-lazy-unpack

> An emulation-based unpacker and import resolver for Windows x64 binaries protected with VMProtect 3.x. It unpacks without a debugger or live dump by using Unicorn to emulate syscalls.

- Magnitude: 1.9 out of 10 — Steady
- Stars: 91 total · +4 stars measured 2026-10-08, 16:51–18:09 UTC, ≈ 5 by evening
- Star trust: star growth looks organic

## Useful for

- Unpack a VMProtect-protected exe for later analysis in a disassembler
- Rebuild the IAT and imports in an already unpacked binary via --imports_only
- Prepare a sample for devirtualization by recovering code and exception tables

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-08 (UTC), 16:51–18:09: 87 → 91 stars (+4). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +5 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 6 days old and already has 91 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #191.
- Recent forks include notable developers: @gmh5225 (1,286 followers), @CrackerCat (1,076 followers), @classic130 (225 followers).

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 12
- Issues and pull requests: 1
- Watchers: 0
- Average over the last week: 4 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 8

## Stars per day, last 12 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
