Hi Megan
any idea what I can still do / try to get access again ?

I checked Windows updates but no updates at or since the problem has occured. I also checked my Dropbox folder, but latest change was my thesis version "K:\Studium\Thesis\2401207Projektskizze" I saved on Dec 7th - 5 days ago. I also see the boxcryptor key file (?) ".encfs6" in my Dropbox boxcyptor folder.

I looked at https://www.boxcryptor.com/migration-guide but I think this is related to the newer versoion of boxcryptor, which seems not to be compatible with my used old "boxcryptor classic" version, correct?

Any way I can retrieve my files with that ".encfs6" file? I just need to get read access once and then would copy them into a non encrypted folder to be safe...

Plesase help - I cannot continue to work on my thesis for now due to that reason...

Thanks
Kathi
