Because PureBasic compiles directly to assembly and then to a native executable, creating a "perfect" decompiler is incredibly difficult. Unlike managed languages like C# or Java, which leave behind extensive metadata, native binaries often strip away variable names and comments during compilation. Why Use a Decompiler for PureBasic?

Enable debug information or use PureBasic's built-in profiler and debugger before compilation.
