i planed to encrypt and decrypt the password entered in my application and my encryption is working and the data in the db is in encrypted form,but while it comes to the matter of decrypting and retrieving the data from the db, It is showing an error..
The input is not a valid Base-64 string as it contains a non-base 64 character, more than two padding characters, or a non-white space character among the padding characters.
and the line showing the error is..
byte[] todecode_byte = Convert.FromBase64String(password);
