-If you have used encryption before you will notice a small popup on the left side of the screen, asking you to upgrade. Click on the "upgrade" button to start the upgrade. {{ :services:matrix:riot_e2e_upgrade_01.png?direct&800 |}} Next you will have to enter your ZEDAT-password… {{./riot-e2e-doku-pictures/riot_e2e_upgrade_02.png |}} and enter your recovery passphrase you set when you set up key backups for encryption. If you can not remember your passphrase you can use the recovery key if you have still saved it somewhere. Alternatively you can set up a new key recovery. Your previous encrypted messages will still be available if you are able to read them on the device you are using to perform the upgrade. {{./riot-e2e-doku-pictures/riot_e2e_upgrade_03.png |}}
