DLL and EXE files in ROM can be of two sorts: execute-in-place, and regular files. DLLs and EXEs marked execute-in-place cannot be opened for reading, only loaded by Windows using CreateProcess or LoadLibrary. Files with other extensions may also be affected if they're really DLLs underneath (and are also marked execute-in-place).

Technical reason: a DLL or EXE's image on disk is different from its image in-memory. An execute-in-place DLL or EXE is exactly what it says: it executes directly, in-place, from the ROM. A 'regular' DLL file has to be copied to RAM and fixed-up by the loader; for the execute-in-place DLL, it has to be fixed-up at ROM build time. In the process, the information required to fix it up is discarded along with the regular image headers. It isn't then possible to reproduce the file. It could have been, but Microsoft decided not to waste ROM space on keeping the information required to reverse the process.

Execute-in-place was very relevant in the first Windows CE devices which had very small amounts of RAM. I think it's being slightly de-emphasized now.

Either type of DLL, and indeed any file in the ROM, can be overridden by copying a file to the device's storage in the 'same' location to shadow it. However, you can never delete the file.

Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder
