9000 :: any compressed package supports password on Windows?

  As the title says, is there any compressed package which supports password setting both in compression( writing) and decompression(reading) cases on Windows?

  I have checked https://github.com/nim-lang/zip which only supports password during reading step.

  Thanks

  Do you want to create a zip file that is standard compliant?

  If this is not required, you could:

  1. compress your stuff
  2. encrypt it yourself (eg with libsodium, nimcrypto, xxtea, ...)
