    assuming you mean .exe as in self-extracting archieves then WinRAR should do the job

    .exe is an application. You cannot extract from applications. Many Setup files make changes to the registry and does other things than just making a folder and putting files in it. So even if you could descramble it, it would be useless unless you want to play with the source code.

    I dont think its possible just to get the contents other than normal zip/rar executables.

    You might give ResHack a try, I don&#39;t think it can look directly into .exe files though.

    Empty your Windows&#092;Temp folder then hit the exe go back to the folder they normally open up in there save to where you want,you might have to go as far as which folder your program is going to.
