SWF files are usually generated with the help of the following Adobe products: Flash and Flex Builder. The source FLA files (or Flex source files if Flex Builder is used) are developed with Adobe Flash, further on they are compiled into a SWF file. This means FLA files (or Flex source files) contain the source material for SWF and if you want to change SWF, you need to open its source FLA with Adobe Flash (or Flex source files with Flex Builder), edit and compile SWF again with the corrections made.

Question:

But what if I have lost the source FLA and I need to change the SWF... what should be done, how to get FLA from SWF?
Or what if I paid for the Flash banner and the developer refuses to give me the source code... what should I do to extract FLA out of SWF?

Common solutions:

  1. writing this project again with Adobe Flash® or Flex Builder®.
    Disadvantages: Writing the whole project again, especially if the file is complex, is extremely time consuming. Besides it is necessary to possess profound knowledge of Flash technology.
  2. give the file to a specialist, so that this person would recreate the source seeing the resulting file.
    Disadvantages: The professional Flash development services can be very expensive.

It is evident that none of the solutions allows to quickly and at reasonable price restore the source FLA if you have only the compiled SWF left.
