Subject: ODBC Password Encryption - PostgreSQL ANSI(x64)
Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2025 10:32:06 -0500
Message-ID: <CANktj40X_DFbLdGuwM3FEsxMpdW+sY1XqUM4fR7wuMp1rzAHLQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

 In Windows, please confirm that when using special characters within a
password string, the password stored is "mangled" when saving the string
under the ODBC.INI datasource in the registry.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ODBC\ODBC.INI\

So to use a password in a .net app with an OdbcConnection, don't use the
plain text password, instead use the ODBC.INI datasource saved mangled
password.

Thank you,
Joe
