Description

The ENCRYPTION_KEY option specifies the key used to encrypt the command file.

This key acts much like a password for the encrypted command file. If a key was used to encrypt a command file (when Universal Encrypt was run), that same key must be specified to decrypt the file; otherwise, the decryption will fail.

If no key is specified, a default value is provided.
