How do you get all files in a folder?

[GiulioM]

I'm working at a virus encryption tool. I see AutoIt can encrypt a single file through _Crypt_EncryptFile(), but I have to encrypt all files in a given folder. I thought to get an array containing all files, say $files[], and then do something like:

For $k=1 to UBound($files[])
_Crypt_EncryptFile($files[$k], $files[k], $password, $CALG_RC4)
Next

How can i get the $files[] array?

Look at _FileListToArray in the help file.

If you like making viruses then may I suggest you read the forum rules, as discussion on this topic is strictly prohibited and for good reason too.

Back on topic...

Decipher is correct, but with the code you posted in the first post you're using UBound incorrectly. You should pass the variable of the array minus the brackets ([]), not to mention the array you have, does the first element start at the 1st index or the 0th index.

For $i=1 to UBound($aArray)

Yes, in truth it's UBound($array). Anyway, this was not meant to be a discussion on how to make viruses... just how to make a part of a virus.

I hope you are joking because otherwise this thread could easily be closed by a MOD.

GiulioM,

If you ever so much as hint about writing a virus (or even part of a virus) again on this forum you will be permanently banned.
