How to clear current TC master password?

[OlegY]

I need to clear TC master password I set earlier. Is there any way to do it?

If you're talking about FTP connections, do the following:
1. Open FTP connections list (Ctrl+F)
2. Select all encrypted connections (marked with lock icon)
3. Click button 'Encrypt', then 'Remove encryption', enter your master password and click OK.

If you forget master password, you can't decrypt anything.

Hello, OlegY.

As MVV rightly stated in his reply to you:

If you forget master password, you can't decrypt anything.

I.e. bad luck. No chance of removing the master password without knowing the master password.

Kind regards,
Karl

Sorry, I'm using 256-bit AES encryption for the master password. Total Commander warns you when setting a master password that it's not possible (not even for us) to recreate a lost master password.

Please contact your hoster and ask them to reset your password.

BTW, how to reset the password? If I'm okay with losing all stored passwords, how to change the master password?
