Ren'Py Is there any way to encrypt the game exe file?

[benbendeben]

I need to encrypt the game Exe. The game can only be opened after entering the password. After I encrypted it using the exe file encryption software, running the game exe did not respond. I don't know where the problem is and how to fix it. Is there any way to encrypt the game exe file?

 

[rayminator]

use ExeLock

but why?

when renpy doesn't store any game files inside the exe in the first place

If you want to encrypt the game files I'd recommend just sticking everything into a password protected .zip

I agree that it seems kinda pointless though. The password won't really help against pirates since it only requires one person to leak the password.

or leaks the contents of the zip...

This is really confusing...

You start and end by asking how to encrypt the exe file, but between those two sentences you are saying that you have an encrypted file that now refuse to works and you don't know why.

So, what of those two issues is effectively your question ?
