Yes, and when I corrected that it worked. However, in my own code I modified InstID to be a lower amount of bytes. Where in this code do I edit it so that it can do the same, but with less bytes?

Be aware that SHA is not an encryption algorithm. It is a hashing algorithm.

If you try to use SHA as a base component for your data encryption, there is very little chance that you will ever be able to decrypt your data back to the original input.

Left = Right ^ First - 8 (SHA-1 (Left + Key))
Right = Left

There are good reasons why encrypted data is generally longer that the input

If you need the size of you encrypted data to be the same as your input, then you will heavily compromise the security of that data
