Unable to add reference to enigma_ide.dll in C#

[kvnpraveen]

Hi,
Just started testing Enigma Protector yesterday and wanted to test it with a custom design for my Registration form.
I found some useful posts in the forum for doing this and I also tried this with the sample projects provided.
when I try to build or debug the project it gives me an error saying a reference to enigma_ide.dll could not be found. I tried to add the reference and failed at it. The error was "a reference to .dll could not be added. Please make sure whether it is a valid .COM componet."
I am using Windows XP SP3 and Visual Studio 2010.
Please can somebody post a solution for this.
Thank you.

Hi kvnpraveen,

There is the file named enigma_ide.dll in the installation folder of Enigma Protector, just copy this enigma_ide.dll to the same folder with the compiled by C# exe file (compiled exe is located in the Build or Release /bin folder). Once you copy it, you will run your C# program well.

enigma_ide.dll is blank library, it is using just for running of compiled programs without protection (if the program is used Enigma API, like in your case).
After protection you may eliminate enigma_ide.dll because protected file will not require it.
Also note, since enigma_ide.dll is blank library, all Enigma API will fail until file is protected.
