How can I reopen my password protected (.isz) file.

I have tried many of my usual password and i am not shure wich one sould apply anymore.

All I get is this answer "Invalid or unknown image file format".

Is it possible to get my password back in some way?

Realy desperate!

Sorry, it is not possible to recovery password of ISZ images encrypted by AES algorithm.

Just to make sure I am doing the rigth thing.

When I have created my isz file, there was 3 encryption level to choose.

I think i may have change this setting between  the time I made my file to when I have tried to use it.

My question is, could this make a difference to the decryption process when I input my password and by doing so making my true password unusable?

I appreciate your help

ISZ creation: the current setting of encryption is used.
ISZ opening: encryption type stored in the ISZ file is used, not related to current settings.

So, changing 'Encryption' may not introduce a problem.
