Using .cipher files

[buddywebster]

Hello!

I have my encrypted .cipher files (this is what Multibit does to your unencrypted backups when you add a password to a wallet)

Is it possible to use these files with this script? Is there something I can do to get the standard .key format from this .cipher?

If not, how hard would it be to write that? I'd offer a bounty.

Sorry, I don't fully grasp what's wrong, but I know I have my password.

Unfortunately, if you only have the .cipher files (which as you've correctly stated are encrypted versions of existing backup files created when a password is added to the wallet), then these scripts will not help as they are only designed to work with the "normal" .key and .wallet password files.

The good news, is that it should be possible to decrypt these .cipher files... from a quick browse of the old MultiBit code, it seems they are using a variation of the "normal" encryption method.

I'll experiment and see if I can get an idea of how difficult/easy it is going to be to get something working.

And done ;)

Give the new "decrypt_multibit_classic_wallet_cipher.py" script a try...
