Aspose.Slides throw odd exception when loading encrypted odp file

Aspose.Slides Product Family

If I try to load encrypted odp file, I get following exception:

"\u000e —> \u0003 : Error reading “/content.xml” part —> System.Xml.XmlException: ‘\u0016’, hexadecimal value 0x16, is an invalid character.

Doing the same with ppt or pptx file throws InvalidPasswordException. Is there any way to detect if odp file if encrypted?

Hi Klemen,


Thank you for posting.

I have observed your comments and like to share with you that the problem appears to be with the file because PowerPoint 2013 also fails to open it (see attached PP.JPG), even after repairing. It seems like you are using some older version of Aspose.Slides for .NET on your end because Aspose.Slides for .NET 16.1.0 throws an exception while loading this corrupt file. However, you may use IsEncrypted property to check if any file is encrypted or not.

I hope this will be helpful. Please share if I may help you further in this regard.

Best Regards,

File is not corrupted, it opens correctly in OpenOffice Impress. Powerpoint however does not support encrypted .odp files, which is why you get that message.
