Manual
Functions SelectingThere is a list of functions names selected for virtualization. To change the list, click the Select Functions button. The below windows with the possibility to select functions should appear. Note that if you have a MAP file for the Input file, the list of functions will be shown, otherwise, Enigma will try to analyse the file itself and the functions names will be represented with their addresses. Selection of FunctionsSelect the functions necessary for virtualization by checking them out. The information field at the bottom shows a disassembled listing of the selected functions. As for the function in color, see the Simulating topic below. Right-click on the list to see the pop-up menu.
Accurate SelectionAccurate selection provides tools for easier navigation through the list of functions and their selection. Enter Filter Expression - enter the text to sort the selected functions by. Only those functions that contain the text entered will be shown after you click the Apply button. This tool is very useful when the members of a particular class only should be selected. Just enter the class name, click the Apply button and only the members of this class will be shown. Multiple Select - allows you to select and deselect a range of functions. Show Functions - allows you to show only Selected or Not Selected functions, or both. Right-click on the list to see the menu.
SimulatingSimulating allows you to estimate how many times the selected functions have been executed in your application. While simulating, The Enigma Protector executes input file entering in Input Panel, inserts some counters into the executed processes that allow you to count the number of times that a particular function has been executed. The Enigma Protector reads the counters each second while the application is working. Click the Start Simulating button to start the simulating process. To stop simulating, close the executed application or click the Stop Simulating button. If your application requires the Command Line for some purposes, enter it. Note that this feature does not work with dll (COM/ActiveX etc) files, only exe files are supported. After simulating you may uncheck the highly used or unused functions. But unselecting these functions is not a requirement, but is just a recommendation. If you think the functions should be virtualized, there is no difference how many times they are executed while simulating. Also note that virtualization of highly used functions may slow down work of your application and increase CPU loading, and virtualization of non-used functions may also be dangerous because there is no way to check out the workability of the selected functions after protection.
