-# Read Password-Protected Files in Aspose.Tasks
+# Aspose Tasks Tutorial Java: Read Password-Protected Files
 
 ## Introduction
-Aspose.Tasks for Java is a powerful library that allows developers to manipulate Microsoft Project files programmatically. One common task developers face is reading password-protected files. In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the process of reading such files step by step.
+In this **Aspose Tasks tutorial Java** you’ll discover how to open and read a password‑protected Microsoft Project file using the Aspose.Tasks library. Whether you’re building a reporting tool, migrating legacy projects, or automating data extraction, handling secured files is a common requirement. This guide walks you through the setup, code, and verification steps so you can integrate the solution into your Java applications with confidence.
+
+## Quick Answers
+- **Can Aspose.Tasks read password‑protected .mpp files?** Yes, by supplying the password when constructing the `Project` object.  
+- **Do I need a license to use this feature?** A temporary or full license is required for production use; a free trial works for evaluation.  
+- **Which Java version is supported?** Aspose.Tasks for Java supports JDK 8 and newer.  
+- **Is any additional dependency required?** Only the Aspose.Tasks JAR; no extra libraries are needed.  
+- **How long does the implementation take?** Typically under 10 minutes for a basic read operation.
+
 ## Prerequisites
-Before we begin, ensure you have the following:
-- Basic knowledge of Java programming.
-- Installed Java Development Kit (JDK) on your system.
-- Familiarity with Aspose.Tasks for Java library.
+Before you start, make sure you have:
+
+- A working Java development environment (JDK 8+ installed).  
+- The Aspose.Tasks for Java library added to your project (Maven/Gradle or manual JAR).  
+- Access to a password‑protected Project file (`PasswordProtected.mpp`).  
 
 ## Import Packages
-First, you need to import the necessary packages into your Java project. Add the following import statement at the beginning of your Java file:
+First, import the core Aspose.Tasks class that enables project manipulation.
+
 ```java
 import com.aspose.tasks.Project;
 ```
+
 ## Step 1: Set Up Data Directory
-Set up the directory where your password-protected file is located. Replace `"Your Data Directory"` with the actual path to your directory.
+Define the folder that contains your secured project file. Replace the placeholder with the actual path on your machine or server.
+
 ```java
 String dataDir = "Your Data Directory";
 ```
-## Step 2: Read Password-Protected File
-Instantiate the `Project` class by passing the file path and the password as parameters.
+
+## Step 2: Read Password‑Protected File
+Create a `Project` instance by passing the full file path and the password. This call decrypts the file in memory, allowing you to work with its contents.
+
 ```java
 Project prj = new Project(dataDir + "PasswordProtected.mpp", "pass");
 ```
-## Step 3: Display Result
-Finally, display the result of the conversion, indicating that the process completed successfully.
+
+## Step 3: Verify Successful Load
+A simple console message confirms that the file was opened without errors.
+
 ```java
 System.out.println("Process completed Successfully");
 ```
