      @Gorion same issue for me, devs are aware of this, looks like it comes from ES

        I don't get what is the problem?
        The encryption is be a security measure and expected behaviour, ist it? You can just delete it and add a new one and it will work, as it should.
        What am I missing?

          @paradadf So what excactly don't you understand? After each update, the wifi password is wrong. Instead of the right password, there is a long string in the textbox and the box does not show the whole string. You have to delete the string blindly, because the textbox does not show it properly. Maybe ask supernature2k, he seems to understand what I mean.

            @paradadf Just to make it easier to understand:

            Password before update "Mypassword"
            Password after update "diogksnlfgiebbröfk17384!:84)&/!;?"
            Of course the password after the update does not work anymore, until I type "Mypassword" again.

              @Gorion my password still works after an update, that's why I didn't get what all this was about. But now I understood that some (if not all but me, maybe not yet) are having this problem. That's all.

                @Gorion i guess you forgot the "enc:" in front of the password.

                And yes, it's been encrypted. Not at each update, but at each reboot. But there seems to be a bug on updating the recalbox.conf in certain cases, i have to investigate that

                                    @Pablo-Macaluso the problem is about the wifi password being lost on update. So you do need to be updated so that this doesn't happen with next updates.

                                    If your problem is not about updates, then there is a misunderstanding regarding this topic

                                        @Pablo-Macaluso it has definitely nothing to do with an encrypted password ...
