How can I protect my code from decompilation?
The fact of the matter is you can’t fully protect your code. AutoIt is an interpreted language, so all scripts are interpreted, and that script has to get stored somewhere 😉 There is still hope though. You can take certain measures to prevent decompiled code from being usable to the person that decompiled. The first step is to obfuscate your code. This causes the code to become unreadable. Basically variables and functions are renamed, making it very hard to make head or tail of what is what. Please see the Decompiling FAQ for more information.
