    DefaultPassword Property
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets the password that the self-extracting zip file will use whenever it tries to unzip an encrypted file.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
 

    Public Property DefaultPassword As String
    'Usage
 

    Dim instance As XceedSfxPrefix
Dim value As String
 
instance.DefaultPassword = value
 
value = instance.DefaultPassword
    public string DefaultPassword {get; set;}

    Property Value

    A string representing the password that the self-extracting zip file will use whenever it tries to unzip an encrypted file.
    Remarks

    If this property is left empty or the password specified is incorrect for any of the encrypted files, then the self-extractor's DialogMessages.Password dialog will be displayed.

    This property can be useful for developers that want to create self-extracting zip files that cannot be unzipped by programs such as WinZip™ without the appropriate decryption password.

    The maximum string length allowed for this property is 79 characters.

    This property is the equivalent of the SfxDefaultPassword property of the ActiveX version of Xceed Zip.
