Making archives with encrypt filenames?

[user2030ble]

Hi,
Total Commander allows to make archives with password.

But everyone can see names of files, etc.

How make an anrchive with encrypt filenames??

[Gral]

Use e.g. WINRAR.EXE as a packer for RAR format, with -p option in config, or Total7zip packer plugin for 7z.

user2030ble,
TC itself packs only into ZIP which doesn't support encrypted names. However RAR or 7Z formats do support such feature so you have to use them for your task, just like Gral said. So, after installing plugin or configuring external RAR packer, you can use Alt+F5 and chose corresponding archive format.

Gral,
As far as I remember, it is -hp switch that encrypts filenames, usual -p only encrypts data.

That's true, but it displays a dialog box where the user can choose to encrypt the names, while -hp displays dialog box with this option checked.

Or pack the files 2 times. In other words, pack the archive again.

Great
I hope that any chance to do it by 'checkbox' only somewhere in total

It should be some chechbox in pack dialog - then always can be packed with default option.

Every time should add '-p' or '-hp' parametr
But always it's some solution


Thanks

Use the Total7zip plugin and you can set the "Encrypt" checkbox in TC pack dialog.

You can make this option permanent:
on "Pack files" dialog select "RAR", press "Configure" and type -p or -hp at the end of the "RAR packer line"
E.g.
C:\PATH\TO\FILE\WINRAR.EXE -p

Note: if you press "Cancel" on WINRAR dialog window it only cancel password prompt, files will be packed without password!

For normal encryption you can also use the "Encrypt" option in TC pack dialog
It will automatically provide the correct switch to the configured Winrar.

That's right, but it causes the appearance of additional dialogs and (with default options) the behavior of the archives as if they were not passwords protected (TC remember password by default).

No, it doesn't remember the password by default !
There is a checkbox in the password dialog if one wants that.

[Gral]

Sorry, my fault, i don't use this option, but probably enabled it during tests.

GREAT
But one little thing
What parametr - to set ENCRYPT FILE NAMES withoutk 'SHOW PASSWORD'
or alone - PACK - without 'SHOW PASSWORD'?

Cancel work great also

[Gral]

To pack files without prompting
- with data encrypt, without encrypt filenames:
C:\PATH\TO\FILE\WINRAR.EXE -pPASSWORD

- with data and file names encrypt:
C:\PATH\TO\FILE\WINRAR.EXE -hpPASSWORD
where PASSWORD is your actual password

Be careful: password is saved in INI file as a plain text (no encrypting)!

[user2030ble]

No, i don't mean that...
In WINRAR my box 'show password' was still checked...
But I found reason - WINRAR remember my last use...

I run winrar - Made archive and uncheked 'show password'.
Now it's fine.

TOTAL can make me this is what I really need
THANKS!!!!
