I found the backups thank you! Is there anywhere I can put a suggestion into
the developers. I think autosave and autosave versions should be 'on' by
default. As a new user to this software I could have lost hours of work if I
didn't go through all the settings first.

I have decrypted that file now with that command thanks. Here is the only line
that has the account referenced (Line 30). I've starred out some sensitive data
and I can upload the full XLM if it helps, I'll need time to star out the
sensitive data that's all:
