Main Idea
IDA is an interactive disassembler. It means that the user takes active participation in the disassembly process. IDA is not an automatic analyzer of programs. IDA will give you hints of suspicious instructions, unsolved problems etc. It is your job to inform IDA how to proceed.If you are starting to use IDA for the very first time, there are some commands you will find very useful:
- convert to instruction : the hotkey is "C" - convert to data : the hotkey is "D"All the changes made by you are saved to disk. So when you start IDA again, all the information on the file being disassembled is read from the disk and so you can continue your work.
For other commands please refer to the menu system and the help.
