Backups & restore points · Encryption and passphrases
Will re-entering my passphrase delete my backup versions?
Short answer: No. Re-enter passphrase… only tests what you type and saves it once it's confirmed to unlock the backup. A wrong guess changes nothing; the right one reconnects you to every saved version.
No. Re-enter passphrase… never deletes anything. It tests what you type against the existing backup, and only saves a passphrase once it has been confirmed to unlock it — so a wrong guess changes nothing and the correct one sticks.
When it matches, Storage Studio reconnects to every version already saved and resumes as normal. The only action that removes versions is Delete & start fresh, which asks you to type a confirmation word first.
