Background:

I have an implementation that is working perfectly.

What happened today:

1. I checked that the implementation still works perfectly.
2. I simply refreshed dependencies for that implementation.
3. I realized protected files no longer prompt for password.
4. I updated BigZip.
5. Protected files still do not prompt for password.

My implementation is simple:

My other implementation is okay now. Perhaps you fixed something? Haha

Nope, I didn't fix anything. Perhaps it was a publishing problem. Glad it wasn't a bug in the component :)

Sir,

Password prompt is missing again. Can you please take a look and test?

Thanks!

Ok, I'll take a look later today.

Hi YS,

I've detected a code change (the only one compared to the previous version) that could cause this. Please download the latest version (2.1.1) as it should be fixed there, and let me know. Thanks!

Greetings Kilian,

Thanks for the work! Here are my latest steps and observations:

1. I generate the zipped file
2. I download the zipped file
3. I try to open protected file
4. There is password prompt
5. I close both protected file and zipped file
6. I try to open protected file again
7. There is NO password prompt
8. I delete both protected file and zipped file
9. I download the zipped file again
10. I try to open protected file
11. There is NO password prompt
12. I close both protected file and zipped file
13. I rename zipped file
14. I try to open protected file
15. There is password prompt

Is this expected?

Lastly, am I right to put CfgEncryptionAlgorithmSet after FileAddMemory and before ZipSave?

Perhaps the wrong ordering is a culprit?

Thanks!

Hi YS,

Yes, as you can read in the documentation, using any of the Cfg Actions affects all files that are added after that. So you first need to call the appropriate Cfg Action, then call any of the FileAdd Actions.

As for the protection, if you create a Zip archive and you specify a password, the Zip archive should stay protected, also with subsequent usages. Make sure you use the fixed version of the component I published yesterday, otherwise the password could be reset for files that are added.
