Will, I am getting NAND PS3s, but thankfully without Bad Blocks till now.
i think it is good idea, it can be done but again i do not know how difficult it would be.

Also, just a comment on checking the 0x00 and 0xFF areas, I have a few samples where areas that usually are 0xFF are indeed 0x00. I am not sure what conditions cause this but I assume it's from different boundaries from previous firmwares.

Basically, areas that are 0xFF will be so because NOR flash memory in it's "erased" state contains all 1's, a write operation is able to change a 1 to a 0 however a block erase operation is required to revert 0's to 1's. Areas that are 0x00 are simply where blank data has been written over an erased block, usually to fill up a boundary.

As for a final report, it would be nice to give a pass or warnings on what specific parts of flash are incorrect.
is the download section getting re-opened then?
otherwise its a bit pointless moving it there if it cannot be accessed.

^^^dont take that as a piss take or anything. its just a question

Honestly no, is it a binary you've download ? which one?
or did you compile it? then did you change anything in the code?

I've not used the proper environment to compile it, therefore some dependencies are missing, see Post #55 from @3absiso and #57 from @guerrierodipace .

Eventually DLLs are present but not the correct version?

Should not be, as in the case of the app having no parameters it displays the help.

Version 0.9.4 works for me . Whatever you changed between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 causes it not to work on some systems .
