C# NUnrar library (extracting password protected rar files without password)

Ali picture Ali · Apr 1, 2012 · Viewed 7.7k times · Source

I am using this library in C# to extract RAR files.

http://nunrar.codeplex.com/

Is it able to extract a file even if it is password protected? It doesn't even ask for password. How is that possible?

I am creating RAR files using WinRar and putting password on them.

I'm the author of nunrar and https://sharpcompress.codeplex.com/

I am making decryption of password protected rar archives my next item to do as I thought I had already done it (zip files blurred my memory).

As another comment said, I am always looking for help but hopefully I'll get this done soon.
