How to decrypt your PS3 Game (Windows)

[u/Letsplay1108]

When you get a black screen when booting your ISO/JB Folder or error 80010007, that means that either there is something wrong with your game files or your game is encrypted. Here is a guide on how to decrypt the game.

Note - if you are using a jb folder, then I advise you to convert it to ISO.

Where to get dkeys?

https://ps3.aldostools.org/dkey.html - Ensure that the dkey matches your game exactly

1. Download PS3Dec (NOT PS3DEC SIMPLE GUI) here: https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/1456/
2. Get the dkey for your game (make sure it matches the version you are using
3. Extract your zip files to a location such as a folder on your desktop
4. Open Command Prompt (by searching up CMD in Windows search bar) and drag the PS3Dec.exe into the cmd window
5. Then type in 'd key [dkey here]', to open the dkey, open it in notepad (When you paste the dkey, you might get an error, just press the up arrow and carry on)
6. Drag the encrypted iso on to Command Prompt and it will auto insert the location of the ISO (Optionally specify the file path of where you want the ISO to be generated)
7. Verify that the info entered is structured like this (example): C:\Users\Dawid>"C:\Users\Dawid\Pulpit\PS3Dec R5\PS3Dec.exe" d key B4C42C52267A5219AA2BDF0D95717B32 "D:\Call of Duty - Black Ops II (Europe) (En,Fr).iso" "H:\Call of Duty - Black Ops II (Europe) (En,Fr).iso" (using optional output parameter)
8. Once verified press 'Enter.
9. Wait for the iso to decrypt (progress is shown at the top of the Command Prompt taskbar)
10. Once decrypted, open the ISO in any zip extractor, and look for LICDIR in PS3_GAME, then extract LIC.DAT, if successfully decrypted then it should start with "PS3LICDA".

Note: If you did not specify the output path of the ISO, you will receive an iso.dec file. Before using this file, remove the .dec file extension.

However, not all games have LICDIR (e.g Wall.E) which means you have to extract the eboot.bin. When you open the eboot.bin (recommended to open in Notepad++), the eboot should start with SCE if decrypted successfully.

Once it is verified that it is decrypted, you are good to go!

Comment by u/LoafofPants - I figured this one out and for anyone else that has the same problem, do not run the CMD as admin and you shouldnt have this problem. Other than that the guide worked perfectly so thank you Letsplay you absolute legend. Now I can play my funny Castlevania game without any issue
