Name Protection

ID: rename
Preset: Minimum

This protection obfuscate the symbols' name so the decompiled source code can neither be compiled nor read.

Parameters

• ascii: ConfuserEx would rename symbols to readable ASCII characters.
  Reflection may not work in this mode.

• letters: ConfuserEx would rename symbols to English letters.

• decodable: ConfuserEx would rename symbols to decodable string. The obfuscated name mapping would be saved to output folder in the file "symbols.map".

• sequential: ConfuserEx would rename symbols to sequential string. The obfuscated name mapping would be saved to output folder in the file "symbols.map".

• reversible: ConfuserEx would encrypt the symbols. The obfuscated names could be decoded by providing the password used in obfuscation.

• debug: ConfuserEx would add an underscore before the symbols. Not intended for production use.

Default is unicode.

password: This parameter is a string value, indicates the password ConfuserEx should use to encrypt the symbol names when reversible mode is used. Only effective on modules. Default is null.
