VMUnprotect is a project engaged in hunting virtualized VMProtect methods. It makes use of Harmony to dynamically read VMP behavior. Currently only supports method administration. Works on VMProtect 3.6.0 (Latest) and few versions back.

As VMProtect describes it on their's website. Code virtualization is the next step in software protection. Most protection systems encrypt the code and then decrypt it at the application’s startup. VMProtect doesn’t decrypt the code at all! Instead, the encrypted code runs on a virtual CPU that is markedly different from generic x86 and x64 CPUs as the command set is different for each protected file.
No, isn't even meant for devirtualization.

This tool uses the following (open source) software:
- dnlib by 0xd4d, licensed under the MIT license, for reading/writing assemblies.
- Harmony by Andreas Pardeike, licensed under the MIT license
- Serilog provides diagnostic logging to files, the console, and elsewhere. It is easy to set up, has a clean API.
- commandline offers CLR applications a clean and concise API for manipulating command line arguments and related tasks
- Autofac Autofac is an IoC container for Microsoft .NET. It manages the dependencies between classes so that applications stay easy to change as they grow in size and complexity. This is achieved by treating regular .NET classes as components.
