Disallow viewing of directory/file names in passworded, compressed file?


Question

I've noticed that if I password-protect a zip/rar, you can still view the directory structure and file names.

 

Is it possible to not even be able to see this without entering the password?

I don't think you can do that directly with a .ZIP file. Like WinRAR (for .RAR files I think, don't have WinRAR on this PC to check)), 7Zip has such an option for .7z files. 

 

You could however double ZIP the files. Put all the files into a ZIP file, then ZIP and Encrypt the ZIP file.

You could allways rename the filename.zip to filename.SSS. That would remove the association wiht PKzip or whatever zip program your using.
