Dear All,

I encrypted my SD card using the encrypt SD Card feature in Android Lollipop. Later, I upgraded my phone to CM13 Marshmallow and I removed the SD Card from my phone during the entire process. Once the new ROM has been installed I encrypted my phone internal memory using the same password as the one I used to encrypt my SD Card.

Once I reinserted my SD Card, the phone couldn't read the encrypted files stored in there. Everytime I try to open a file (image, music, video...) it says "the file couldn't be opened it could be corrupted or damaged".

Can anyone tell me how to restore data on an encrypted SD card ? Of course, I know the exact password that was used to encrypt the data on the SD Card.
