ZipArchive::setPassword — Set the password for the active archive
$password
)Sets the password for the active archive.
passwordThe password to be used for the archive.
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Note:
As of PHP 7.2.0 and libzip 1.2.0 the password is used to decompress the archive, and is also the default password for ZipArchive::setEncryptionName() and ZipArchive::setEncryptionIndex(). Formerly, this function only set the password to be used to decompress the archive; it did not turn a non-password-protected ZipArchive into a password-protected ZipArchive.
