Some vendor-specific firmware update files can be opened incorrectly or can't be opened at all.This is the top priority issue #67, which is being worked on, albeit slowly (due to the amount of coding and testing required to implement it correctly). Image editing is currently only possible using an outdated and unsupported UEFITool 0.28 ( old_engine branch) and the tools based on it ( UEFIReplace, UEFIPatch).Non-Qt builds can also use Meson as an alternative build system. Install both of them, get the sources, generate makefiles using cmake ( cmake UEFIExtract) and use your system's make command on that generated files (i.e. To build a binary that doesn't use Qt (UEFIExtract, UEFIFind), you need a C++ compiler and CMAKE utility to generate a makefile for your OS and build environment.Qt6-based builds can also use CMAKE as an altearnative build system. UEFITool/uefitool.pro) and use your system's make command on that generated files (i.e. Install both of them, get the sources, generate makefiles using qmake ( qmake. To build a binary that uses Qt library (UEFITool) you need a C++ compiler and an instance of Qt5 or Qt6 library.You can either use pre-built binaries for Windows and macOS or build a binary yourself. Can be used to test Intel-based platforms for various security-related misconfigurations, but also has NVRAM parser and other components aimed to firmware modification. Cross-platform partially open source console application written in Python and C. Can be used in scripts to automate firmware patching. Very tinker-friendly due to use of Python. Cross-platform open source console application written in Python. Supports unpacking firmware images from various vendor-specific formats like encrypted HP update files and Dell installers. Used mostly for SLIC-related modifications, but it not limited to this task. Windows-only freeware GUI application written in C#. Go-based cross-platform open source toolset for modifying UEFI firmware images. Does not support any IBV customizations, but is official, and lives in EDK2 repository. Python-based open source toolset for modifying EDK2-based UEFI firmware images. Right now there are some alternatives to UEFITool that you could find useful too: UEFIFind, which uses ffsParser to find image elements containing a specified pattern.Jethro Beekman's tree utility can be used to work with the extracted tree. UEFIExtract, which uses ffsParser to parse supplied firmware image into a tree structure and dumps the parsed structure recursively on the FS. There are some other projects that use UEFITool's engine: The missing parts are in development and the version with a new engine will be made as soon as image reconstruction works again.
