Could you tell us what exactly do you want to do?

IIRC, a program called Resource Hacker lets you modify text strings and image files, but anything more advanced would probably require a decompiler.
And you can't decompress an executable with something like Universal Extractor; UPX will compress an application to make it take up less space, but that's something else entirely.

"anything" is a too big word. Sometimes you can do much more advanced mods w/out decompilation. But usually it is needed.

Truth.

Truth, but the last words are important here...
