Recommended Posts

Hi,

I just reinstalled enpass on Linux (Kubuntu).

I want enpass to use the saved passwords that I stored in Google Drive.

Enpass asks me to enter a password. The question i which one? The PW for my Google account or the master PW for enpass (of which I am not sure)?

Any help is appreciated!

 

EDIT: Same question here:

The password required is the Enpass master password. It is essentially the password with which Enpass encrypts the database before a sync is set up on Google-Drive account. If you still face the same issue on entering the password, follow the steps given ahead-

  • Take a manual backup of the Enpass data on all the devices.
  • Disconnect the sync on all devices that are synced with Google-drive.
  • Login to the same Google-drive cloud account on any device and delete the Enpass folder from Google-drive account.
  • Re-set up the sync with Google-drive (where you are able to access all data) and remember the password you use while setting up sync.
  • After successfully completing the above steps, set up sync again on all other devices as well.

Let me know if you have any queries while doing so. Thanks!
