### masterkey
|
||
|
|
Shows your master key.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Usage: `masterkey pathtosave`
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
Your data is only readable through a chain of decryption operations that begins
|
||
|
|
with your master encryption key (Recovery Key), which MEGA stores encrypted with your password.
|
||
|
|
This means that if you lose your password, your Recovery Key can no longer be decrypted,
|
||
|
|
and you can no longer decrypt your data.
|
||
|
|
Exporting the Recovery Key and keeping it in a secure location
|
||
|
|
enables you to set a new password without data loss.
|
||
|
|
Always keep physical control of your master key (e.g. on a client device, external storage, or print)
