Steps to reproduce:

  1. selected files to add to archive
  2. select "set password" in the archive creation screen
  3. set password
    4)make sure "encrypte file names" is checked)
  4. in sharpcompress open the file with the correct password and try to access the Entries properties, an exception with unknown rar header: 117 will be thrown.

Also: Thank you so much for creating this library, it is simply amazing!
