I'm a beginner in this field, and I wanted to know if on c# I can set a password so only if this specific string will be typed the Console.ReadLine function will work. If it is important to know I'm using MS Visual Studio 2017. edit: what I need is that when you type a certain word, in my case ReProgram, and press enter the code will run as usual and if you enter any other word the code won't continue.

.. if Console.ReadLine doesn't 'work', how are you going to get the password? Please explain more about what you want to do, ideally with some code. – stuartd Oct 09 '18 at 17:40

Are you asking to password protect a console application so that if it doesn't get the correct password from its own Console ReadLine that it will not run? If so is this a front end to a server that will do the validation or are you storing the correct password in the code? – Rodney S. Foley Oct 09 '18 at 17:40

Oh I am very sorry @Filburt about that... it was a daniel-a-white. I looked in the wrong place. – Rodney S. Foley Oct 09 '18 at 18:00

@daniel-a-white He doesn't appear to be asking about Password MASKING ... and we have open questions requesting more information. I think you pulled the trigger a little too quickly on closing this a a duplicate without waiting for verification on the open questions. – Rodney S. Foley Oct 09 '18 at 18:01

@RodneyS.Foley I believe you understood what I wanted. It will be easier for me to store the password in the code itself. hope the edit might help understand what I need better. – Samuel Robinson Oct 09 '18 at 19:03
