- Copy the
zydisinfo.(dll|so|dylib)file to the IDA plugins (idaapi.get_ida_subdirs("plugins")) folder. - Launch IDA Pro.
- Navigate to the
Edit/Pluginsmenu. - Choose
Zydis infofrom the list of plugins.
To build the Zydisinfo plugin, you will need to use the ida-cmake build system.
Please refer to the ida-cmake documentation for instructions on how to set up and use the build system.
