Find empty place inside target exe,
By default Byte to find is 00 (must be entered as 2 hexadecimal bytes)
you can specify on which section from PE to search, or section characteristics.

Thanks CodeCracker
do you know how to make this code compatible with VS2019+?

https://prnt.sc/2_-u5LTC9vsN

error code is

EmptyFinder\EmptyFinderDlg.cpp(56,2): error C2440: 'static_cast': cannot convert from 'void (__thiscall CEmptyFinderDlg::* )(HDROP)' to 'LRESULT (__thiscall CWnd::* )(WPARAM,LPARAM)'

[CodeCracker]

EmptyFinder v2: added "dec" and "hex" radio for setting base of "Min number of bytes".

@sendersu: This seems to be related to drag and drop support, don't know about drag and drop in VS2019+.

@CodeCracker,

1. Searching for empty bytes mean null bytes right? If so can we change the sought value; like 0x00 to 0xCC or to 0xFF
2. Can we search a pattern? (More than one byte)

Sorry, I am asking because i cannot download the files.

[CodeCracker]

1. Yes 2. No.

1. empty bytes means usually 00, you can enter other hex byte value like CC or FF
under "Byte to find" textbox. By default searches for 00 byte
