读取控制台输入是困难的，你需要处理特殊的键，如Ctrl, Alt，还有光标键和退格/删除。在一些键盘布局中，像瑞典式Ctrl甚至需要输入直接存在于美国键盘上的键。我相信尝试使用“低级”console . readkey (true)来处理这个问题是非常困难的，所以最简单和最健壮的方法是在输入密码时禁用“控制台输入回声”，使用一点WINAPI。

下面的示例是基于从std::cin问题读取密码的答案。

    private enum StdHandle
    {
        Input = -10,
        Output = -11,
        Error = -12,
    }

    private enum ConsoleMode
    {
        ENABLE_ECHO_INPUT = 4
    }

    [DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
    private static extern IntPtr GetStdHandle(StdHandle nStdHandle);

    [DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
    [return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
    private static extern bool GetConsoleMode(IntPtr hConsoleHandle, out int lpMode);

    [DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
    [return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
    private static extern bool SetConsoleMode(IntPtr hConsoleHandle, int dwMode);

    public static string ReadPassword()
    {
        IntPtr stdInputHandle = GetStdHandle(StdHandle.Input);
        if (stdInputHandle == IntPtr.Zero)
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException("No console input");
        }

        int previousConsoleMode;
        if (!GetConsoleMode(stdInputHandle , out previousConsoleMode))
        {
            throw new Win32Exception(Marshal.GetLastWin32Error(), "Could not get console mode.");
        }

        // disable console input echo
        if (!SetConsoleMode(stdInputHandle , previousConsoleMode & ~(int)ConsoleMode.ENABLE_ECHO_INPUT))
        {
            throw new Win32Exception(Marshal.GetLastWin32Error(), "Could not disable console input echo.");
        }

        // just read the password using standard Console.ReadLine()
        string password = Console.ReadLine();

        // reset console mode to previous
        if (!SetConsoleMode(stdInputHandle , previousConsoleMode))
        {
            throw new Win32Exception(Marshal.GetLastWin32Error(), "Could not reset console mode.");
        }

        return password;
    }

(我的)nuget包来做这个，基于上面的答案:

安装包PanoramicData。ConsoleExtensions

用法:

using PanoramicData.ConsoleExtensions;

...

Console.Write("Password: ");
var password = ConsolePlus.ReadPassword();
Console.WriteLine();

为此，您应该使用System.Security.SecureString

public SecureString GetPassword()
{
    var pwd = new SecureString();
    while (true)
    {
        ConsoleKeyInfo i = Console.ReadKey(true);
        if (i.Key == ConsoleKey.Enter)
        {
            break;
        }
        else if (i.Key == ConsoleKey.Backspace)
        {
            if (pwd.Length > 0)
            {
                pwd.RemoveAt(pwd.Length - 1);
                Console.Write("\b \b");
            }
        }
        else if (i.KeyChar != '\u0000' ) // KeyChar == '\u0000' if the key pressed does not correspond to a printable character, e.g. F1, Pause-Break, etc
        {
            pwd.AppendChar(i.KeyChar);
            Console.Write("*");
        }
    }
    return pwd;
}

我对退格做了一些修改

        string pass = "";
        Console.Write("Enter your password: ");
        ConsoleKeyInfo key;

        do
        {
            key = Console.ReadKey(true);

            // Backspace Should Not Work
            if (key.Key != ConsoleKey.Backspace)
            {
                pass += key.KeyChar;
                Console.Write("*");
            }
            else
            {
                pass = pass.Remove(pass.Length - 1);
                Console.Write("\b \b");
            }
        }
        // Stops Receving Keys Once Enter is Pressed
        while (key.Key != ConsoleKey.Enter);

        Console.WriteLine();
        Console.WriteLine("The Password You entered is : " + pass);

您可以将键附加到一个累加链表中。

当接收到退格键时，从列表中删除最后一个键。

当您接收到enter键时，将列表折叠成字符串并执行其余工作。

这将用一个红色方块掩盖密码，然后在输入密码后恢复到原来的颜色。

它不会阻止用户使用复制/粘贴来获取密码，但如果它只是为了阻止别人从你的身后看，这是一个很好的快速解决方案。

Console.Write("Password ");
ConsoleColor origBG = Console.BackgroundColor; // Store original values
ConsoleColor origFG = Console.ForegroundColor;

Console.BackgroundColor = ConsoleColor.Red; // Set the block colour (could be anything)
Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Red;

string Password = Console.ReadLine(); // read the password

Console.BackgroundColor= origBG; // revert back to original
Console.ForegroundColor= origFG;
