I can not access any longer Mega account from rclone, i can from web but the content is encrypted , how to get the content back?

rclone mount mega_one_crypt: ~/mega_one_crypt/ --vfs-cache-mode full --checksum --network-mode --allow-non-empty --drive-use-trash

welcome to the forum,

  1. use, megacmd, to start a webdav server
  2. use rclone to access the webdav server

or

  1. download the files to local
  2. create a rclone remote pointing to the downloaded files.

@asdffdsa Could you be more explicit. I have downloaded encrypted files from Mega that I want to decrypt. As with the OP, I'm am unable to access Mega using rclone as of today but can download my files from Mega's web page. I can't understand the instruction at rclone crypt. I'm using latest versions of rclone and restic on Linux Mint 24.04

You have not posted much details so only answer you get is the same as your question - general one.

What you have to do:

  1. Save encrypted files in /path/to/encrypted
  2. Create new remote using the same parameters as for mega crypt but with remote = /path/to/encrypted
  3. Access your local (now) encryopted files using this new remote.

@kapitainsky Thank you. That's exactly what I was asking. I can now access those encrypted files.

After nearly 24 hours, Mega is again accepting logins from rclone
