Box Classic: lost password on one PC but still connected to drive on other PC

merlinus98

Hello all

I have BoxCryptor Classic.
On one PC, I have my 2 drives connected (one on Dropbox, one on OneDrive) and working since a long time.
In the second one, I had upgraded to the latest 1.7.409 : one (Dropbox) of my two drives is mounted again, but I don't remember the password of the second (OneDrive).

As for now, I just see one solution : from the PC which is ok/have access, copying the files in a new boxcryptor drive on OneDrive, thus recreating a new password/key, then mount this new drive on the other PC in place of the forgotten one ? Am I right ? No other ways ?

Thanks to all...

Robert

Hello,

I'm sorry, but there is no other way besides copying the existing encrypted files to a new Boxcryptor Classic folder.

Best regards,
Robert

Don't be sorry, Robert, and thanks for the answer.
I completely understand this is the only way (besides, seems better for security ;) ).
I'm currently copying the files to a new BC drive.
Best regards.
