Recovery

Recovery restores a protected file back to its original source. It’s your guarantee that protecting code never means losing it: as long as you hold the recovery key, you can always get your source back.

Recovery is fully offline. It uses a private key that only you hold — never uploaded, never stored by Oxrion — so you can restore from a backup years later with no account and no connection.

Recovery only works on files protected with Recovery enabled in the Encoder, bound to a recovery keypair you created in Keys. If a file was protected without recovery, there is no way to restore it — by design.

  1. Create a recovery keypair in Keys.
  2. Protect code with Recovery enabled, bound to that keypair.
  3. Keep the private key safe. To restore, run Recovery with that key against the protected files.
