What happens in the case of 1password forgot password?
When using a service like 1Password, what happens if you forget or lose your master password?
My guess is that you can simply reset your passwords on all the sites 1password remembered for you, but I think if you don't have a recovery email address or phone, things like gmail accounts might be rendered permanently inaccessible. Is this correct?
In the case of 1password forgot password - If you don't have an up-to-date backup, you will permanently lose access to all the data stored by 1Password. There is no way for 1Password to decrypt the data, simply because they don't know the key. Your password is the key to the AES encryption used.
