SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EMULATION OF FILES USING MULTIPLE IMAGES OF THE EMULATOR STATE

Disclosed are systems, methods, and computer program products for emulation of files using multiple images of the emulator state. In one example, the method includes loading the file into an emulator of the computer system; initiating emulation of the file by the emulator; storing an initial image of an initial state of the emulator; continuing the emulation of the file and detecting occurrence of a condition that results during the emulation of the file; creating and storing a new image of a next state of the emulator when an occurrence of the condition is detected; determining whether the emulation of the file has terminated correctly or incorrectly; and upon determining that the emulation of the file has terminated incorrectly, loading the new image of the next state into the emulator and resuming the emulation of the file from the next state of the emulator.
