Decrypting Your Backup

Once you have downloaded your backup, you will need to decrypt it before you can use it.  To decrypt your backup, enter the command:

gpg –d Sample.bak.gpg > Sample.bak

Where Sample.bak.gpg is the encrypted filename, and Sample.bak is the filename you’d like to use for the unencrypted backup.  Enter your passphrase when prompted.
