Open a backup without Kuriosa

Choose a Kuriosa backup and type your recovery key. Your browser decrypts it on this computer and writes the same files as Export everything: a spreadsheet, CSV and JSON files, and every photo and document.

A .kuriosabackup file, made in Kuriosa under Settings › Backup.

The 32 characters from your emergency sheet, with or without the dashes.

Your browser makes one ZIP file to save, without a password: it stays on your computer.

Works in current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari. For backups with many gigabytes of photos, use Chrome or Edge on a computer: they write the files straight into a folder.
