Encrypt Data Segment - Compressed Executable

[itamar]

Hi Guys,
I'm creating a Compressed Executable and marked the V for the Encrypt Data Segment.

This is preventing from people to extract your Exe with Winrar/Winzip utilities,
I tried to extract the Exe myself, and it asks me for a password.
That's great.

But don't you think the developer should set the password?

AMS is amazing.

howdy..my understanding is 'request for password' is
just the unzip util's way of saying the 'sfx header' is
encrypted..there may not actually be a 'real' password
at all.
my 2 cents..

Or I should try blank password.
Because I tried them both... blanks, common and etc.
Even the legendary 'password' didn't help me.

But that's not a big deal, anyway.
