DLL Extractor

This Python script extracts the DLL dependencies of a Windows executable file and filters out DLLs that are commonly included with the operating system.

Features

• Identifies all DLLs required by a specified .exe file.
• Filters out DLLs that are part of the standard Windows OS (e.g., KERNEL32.dll, USER32.dll).

Requirements

• Python 3.6 or later
• pefile library

Installation

Install the required Python library:

pip install pefile

Usage

Run the script with the path to an executable file as an argument:

python get_dll_dependencies.py <path_to_exe>

Example

python get_dll_dependencies.py my_program.exe

Output:

Non-OS DLL Dependencies:
  glew32.dll
  glfw3.dll
  libyaml-cpp.dll
  lua54.dll

Notes

• The script assumes the executable is a valid PE (Portable Executable) file.
• It gracefully handles errors such as missing files or invalid PE formats.
