PyMemoryEditor

A pure-Python library (built on ctypes) that lets you inspect, modify and search the memory of any running process in a few lines of Python — Cheat Engine workflows on Windows, Linux and macOS!

PyMemoryEditor logo

Read, write and scan the memory of any process — straight from Python.
One unified API. Three operating systems. No C compiler. No native build step.

Runs on 🪟 Windows · 🐧 Linux · 🍎 macOS — 32-bit and 64-bit.

Python PackagePypiLicensePython VersionDownloads

PyMemoryEditor app attached to a running process

Tweak a value in a running game · inspect a live program's state · harvest data straight from RAM.

Install

pip install PyMemoryEditor

To also install the bundled GUI app (a Cheat Engine-style scanner), use the app extra:

pip install "PyMemoryEditor[app]"
pymemoryeditor

For faster scans on large processes, add the speed extra. It pulls in NumPy and automatically vectorizes the numeric scan comparison loop — ~10–30× faster on selective scans:

pip install "PyMemoryEditor[speed]"

📖 Full guide at Read the Docs.

fromPyMemoryEditorimportOpenProcesswithOpenProcess(name="game.exe") asprocess:
# Scan the whole process for every address holding the value 100.foraddressinprocess.search_by_value(int, value=100):
print(f"Found at 0x{address:X}")
# Read the current value, then write a new one back.current=process.read_int(address)
process.write_int(address, current+500)

That's it — read, write or scan another process in three lines, the same way on every platform.

📖 Documentation

Full documentation lives at pymemoryeditor.readthedocs.io — installation, the Cheat Engine workflow, every method and parameter, the GUI app guide, platform notes and troubleshooting.

A quick map of where to go:

Quick StartOpen a process, read, write and run your first scan.
Searching memoryValue scans, ranges, refining results, the Cheat Engine loop.
Pattern scanFind code/data with byte signatures (AOB) and regex.
PointersMulti-level pointer chains and the live RemotePointer.
Pointer scanFind static pointers that survive ASLR.
The GUI appThe bundled Cheat Engine-style scanner.
API referenceEvery public class, method and parameter.
Platform notesPermissions and quirks on Windows, Linux and macOS.
TroubleshootingCommon errors and how to fix them.

What can I build with this?

  • 🎮 Game modding & speedrunning tools — the classic Cheat Engine use case.
  • 🔬 Debugging & introspection — inspect live state without attaching a debugger.
  • 📊 Observability tooling — sample variables in a running process for telemetry.
  • 🔐 Security & reverse-engineering research — on systems you own or are authorized to test.
  • 🎓 Learning — the bundled app is a great teaching tool for how memory scanning works.

Note

Responsible use. PyMemoryEditor talks to other processes through OS-level APIs. Only point it at processes you own or have explicit permission to inspect.

Pull requests, bug reports and feature ideas are very welcome. Read CONTRIBUTING.md for the development setup, test layout and the small set of platform-specific quirks to be aware of.

What can I build with this?
  • 🎮 Game modding & speedrunning tools — the classic Cheat Engine use case.
  • 🔬 Debugging & introspection — inspect live state without attaching a debugger.
  • 📊 Observability tooling — sample variables in a running process for telemetry.
  • 🔐 Security & reverse-engineering research — on systems you own or are authorized to test.
  • 🎓 Learning — the bundled app is a great teaching tool for how memory scanning works.
Note
Responsible use. PyMemoryEditor talks to other processes through OS-level APIs.
Only point it at processes you own or have explicit permission to inspect.

PyMemoryEditor
A pure-Python library (built on ctypes) that lets you inspect, modify and search the memory of any running process in a few lines of Python — Cheat Engine workflows on Windows, Linux and macOS!
PyMemoryEditor logo
Read, write and scan the memory of any process — straight from Python.
One unified API. Three operating systems. No C compiler. No native build step.

Runs on 🪟 Windows · 🐧 Linux · 🍎 macOS — 32-bit and 64-bit.

Python PackagePypiLicensePython VersionDownloads
PyMemoryEditor app attached to a running process

Tweak a value in a running game · inspect a live program's state ·
harvest data straight from RAM.

Install
pip install PyMemoryEditor
To also install the bundled GUI app (a Cheat Engine-style scanner), use the app extra:
pip install "PyMemoryEditor[app]"
pymemoryeditor
For faster scans on large processes, add the speed extra. It pulls in NumPy
and automatically vectorizes the numeric scan comparison loop — ~10–30× faster on
selective scans:
pip install "PyMemoryEditor[speed]"
📖 Full guide at Read the Docs.

fromPyMemoryEditorimportOpenProcesswithOpenProcess(name="game.exe") asprocess:
# Scan the whole process for every address holding the value 100.foraddressinprocess.search_by_value(int, value=100):
print(f"Found at 0x{address:X}")
# Read the current value, then write a new one back.current=process.read_int(address)
process.write_int(address, current+500)
That's it — read, write or scan another process in three lines, the same way on every platform.
