[cocacola1131]

Hello,

I'm having problems using the protection to a c# Console Application that I build. The .exe file already merged all necessary dlls (Costura.Fody)

Hi

There are 2 ways how to fix the problem:
1. If you use any other tool to merge dlls with exe, then I recommend to switch to Virtual Box feature. In Enigma Protector, there is a feature Virtual Box, that merges any files to exe.
So you can use this feature for merning, instead of any other tools.
2. You can try to enable the option Miscellaneous - Other - Do not check if compressed.
